As the press release states:
..Wintrebert, whose work is shown in museums and galleries around the world,
was inspired to make these sculptures when he met Reiner Meindl of Lamberts
Glas in Waldsassen, which is the oldest mouth-blown window-glass factory in the
world. He says: “I saw the glass cylinders and I was fascinated by how beautiful
and simple they were. The cylinders are split open and flattened to take their
intended shape as window glass. You could feel the strength and energy it took the
glassblowers to make them.”
