    Art Brokerage: Sibylle Peretti German Glass Artist: In Germany she grew up in an environment surrounded by traditional glassmaking. The nature of this craft was focused on skills designed towards the production of high-end decorative and functional glass objects. Trained as a glass designer at the State School for Glass Making in Zwiesel Germany, she learned the techniques of enameling, engraving, cutting and designing glass. She was given the skills necessary to embellish a functional object with a sense of wondrous beauty. At the same time she felt the limitation of this process. She wanted to push the material further, she needed to find her personal voice in the craft and the vision she had of the purpose of these skills. She studied sculpture and painting at the Fine Arts academy of Cologne. There she discovered the freedom to translate her artistic visions in glass, which were supported and enforced by using the craftsmanship she acquired from the school of design. Although her studies at the academy in Cologne were artistically open, she chose to continue working in glass but in a context more suitable to the philosophies of the fine arts. The fragility and translucency of the material afforded her an added dimension, an extra layer to enhance her ideas of humanities temporal existence. Glass allowed her an expression deeply connected to her vision. Beneath the surface, she could produce a mysterious world, a dreamlike atmosphere where connections are tenuous and brittle. Most of her work in Germany explored that dialogue between idea and material, between creating layers of meaning and the object. Glass was that magic canvas that connected it all together. Although she feels that her vision is similar today to when was in the academy, her skills towards the realization of that vision have increased. She has been fortunate to receive a number of residencies in various cities and countries that have been influential in her work. She began to work in cast glass at one of these residencies and have continued using casting until now. She has also been fortunate to work in cast porcelain using that material to produce life-size figures. Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.
