X-factor

Rineke does not like to copy, her glass must always be original and her skills must be able to develop further with it. An object with an X-factor!

Lichen

You can find them on trees, on walls and on loose stones. Lichens can be found in many places as long as the air is clean enough. They are sometimes very flat but can also have an interesting structure. Rineke made a beautiful green and pure white glass one.

Polka dots

On the street you occasionally see those cheerfully fluttering fresh summer dresses, sprinkled with colored polka dots. Rineke captured that effect in a work of glass.

Azure

In the town of El Golfo on Lanzarote, the ocean hits the coast with thunderous violence. The water in those giant waves is azure blue, beautiful!

Crimson pebbles

Like crimson rock-hard pebbles in a clear stream. This is what the work Crimson pebbles looks like. It can be seen at the Zutphen Glass Expo on 1 and 2 November 2025, together with the 3D glass panel Crimson Flow by Carolin Zibulka.

Monolith

This glass monolith is straight, sleek, and highly organized. A single, indivisible whole that towers above its surroundings. Yet it is also playful, constructed from Rineke’s glass “pixels,” signed with her logo.

Flow

During a brisk walk, the sun sparkled on the flowing water of the Aa river. Pure summer in autumn! Rineke got into the flow for a shimmering piece that reflects the light shows the flow of water in the sun, wonderful.

Tulip

The round open shape of a tulip was the inspiration for making Tulip. It continues to amaze that you can turn a straight, flat sheet of glass with sharp edges into such a round, smooth and organic work of art. Rineke gets happy from that result and enjoys the shapes and colors of the clear glass. Nice and sunny!

Sugar

Rineke experiments with working with square plates of glass that she calls pixels. This is how Sugar was created, a double-sided crystal with a clear iridescent core. Isn’t it sweet?

Seventies

In the seventies, the colors were fresh, bright and often contrasting. The atmosphere was optimistic, we were doing well! Rineke has tried to express that feeling in ‘Seventies’. It makes you happy and we can use that.
