Flamenco
Fiery and swaying, that is the Spanish dance Flamenco. Rineke made a new glass object in the series of dances, followig previous dances like Tango, Paso doble and Rain dance. The flamenco dancer’s rustling skirts are deep red and solid in color on the inside. The exterior captures the temperament of the dance. Olé!!
Castle
Castle combines clear and moss-green glass to take the shape of a medieval castle. Light plays on the surface, creating subtle patterns and reflections. This piece captures the essence of a castle, blending the traditional form with modern design.
Polder
The vast rectangular fields of arable farming in the Flevopolder were the inspiration for creating this work, Polder. Repeating blocks, intersected with interruptions, but in glass. Fantastic for those who love patterns.
Honeycomb
Intriguing, regular and beautiful in color. You can see that when you look at a honeycomb. The repeating pattern with the golden-yellowish color of honey underneath. Rineke wants to convey the essence of this in this glass work of art. Not hexagonal, but with the regular pattern of cells filled with glorious goodness.
Rain dance
The inspiration for Rain dance came (surprise…) from the soaking wet months of January and February of this year. Rineke wanted to make something beautiful out of all that rain. Fortunately, the Rain dance has helped, to finally stop the rain. Spring!
Scarlet
The bright red glass artwork Scarlet with white accents, reflects the feeling of Valentine’s Day. Passionate red symbolizes love, white adds tenderness. A powerful, romantic work of art.
Embrace
Glass is a hard material. But when you fuse strips of glass with sharp edges together in the oven, it becomes round and soft to the touch. It feels like a warm embrace through a soft blanket of glass, a sweet hug.
Facet
Rineke enjoys using different colours to create shapes in the glass. You can see that nicely in this work Facet. Where the blue and green strips of glass touch each other, the shape of a facet emerges. A sparkling play with the use of colour.
Tic
The third and final work in the tic-tac-toe series is Tic. In the 3 by 3 glass playing field, only one blue-coloured rod has now been placed in each block. As a result, this work looks less complicated than the family members Tic-tac and Tic-tac-toe. Framed in a black box frame, it is a beautiful work to have on the wall.
Bonfire
This subtle work of art made of orange glass evokes the atmosphere of a small crackling campfire. The transparency catches light and gives a warm glow. The work invites quiet reflection and brings back memories of pleasant evenings around the fire for Rineke.
