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!

On September 7, 2025, you can admire both glass 3D objects and some bronze sculptures by Rineke during the annual Art Village of the Kunstkring Sint Anthonis.

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?

Wonderful weekend at Persingen On 9 and 10 August 2025, Rineke Nijssen and Carolin Zibulka exhibited their work together in the exhibition Reflections in Glass

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.

You probably know it, cake or ice cream with those green and red candied cherries. Pink, white, and green ice cream is called Cassata, often made with strawberries, vanilla, and pistachio ice cream, and cherry pieces. Let Rineke be a real enthusiast!
