Alicia Lomné - Glass Artist • pate de verre

Alicia Lomne works with the glass kiln casting technique of Pate de verre. Literally translated from French it means paste of glass. The process includes creating a model, making a mold, placing thin layers of powdered or frited glass with in the mold, and then firing the piece in a kiln. Alicia works primarily with open faced molds and is most compelled by the exact color placement and sculptural possibilities that
pate de verre offers.
