The work of Pia Burrick isn't coquettish, but genuine.Her stories
and images touch, move and sometimes cause uneasiness. Burric's
artistic oeuvre can be divided into applied and free work. Her
functional applied glass creations are made to measure for specific
interiors and complement existing elements. These creations, mostly
stained-glass windows, are made using traditional techniques but
are nonetheless contemporary in style and most of all in perfect
harmony with the space. Her private work is more open, more sober
and more powerful.The designs in which she toys with the boundary
between figuration and abstraction are most imaginative and
convincing. Glass allows working on both sides, opaque or
transparent, projecting or reflecting, with or without colour.
Burrick experiments with combinations of pure glass, enamel, lead
or lead sheets The themes and subjects determine the techniques.
Images from around the home, newspaper photos or television stills
are often at the base of her objects. Any image that is powerful
and sticks in the mind is hung up in the studio, where it waits
until it is transformed and takes on its definitive form. Pia
Burrick is a remarkable artistic personality who made glass art her
favourite form of expression. Text in English and Dutch.
