Toots Zynsky is celebrated for her characteristic, heat-formed, glass thread vessels and her exploration of form and color. Utilizing a process of her own design, known as “filet de verre,” Zynsky layers and arranges super fine glass threads on a fiberglass board in a method the artist has likened to drawing or painting. These thin threads are then thermally fused in the kiln as the artist shapes and curves the glass into fluid waves that characterize her vessels.
