BERTIL CAPTURES AND CREATES STORIES IN ART GLASS

Bertil uses figures, metaphors, and symbols to create a story in the glass. Often the boats are the shell where the art's story unfolds. The boats symbolize movement and freedom. The glass art gives a feeling of knowing or not knowing where you are going.

THE BOATS ENCOURAGE TONES OF THE SUBCONSCIOUS

If you try to catch, hold, and analyze them, they become slippery and slip away. Like dreams. The sleek boats have glided across the world with their messages and aroused wonder for almost three decades. Loaded with symbols and secrets frozen in the glass art, they whisper to us about the existential.

INTERNATIONALLY CELEBRATED
