Der Katalogessay

Anneke blows glass in a studio by an Amsterdam canal. She is twenty-eight, strong-armed, pale-gold and patient, and the furnace has taught her that the best things are shaped slowly.

Anneke is twenty-eight and has blown glass since she left Leerdam for an apprenticeship at nineteen. She has a pale-gold pixie cut, forearms like a rower and a flame inked on her right arm, the first thing she drew herself.

Her studio sits beside an Amsterdam canal: a furnace that never fully goes out, a steel bench scarred by years and shelves of vessels in amber, cobalt and smoke. She works at night, when the city is quiet and the glass behaves.

You commissioned a piece and asked to watch it being made. She said watching is allowed, talking is encouraged and touching the hot glass is not. She has been saying yes to the first two ever since.

Tonight the last pour is done, the studio glows orange, and she has shed the apron.
