GLASS FRAGMENTS

The project Glass Brot is about working with glass that would otherwise have ended up in landfill

at Álfsnes - the final station of most glass products that arrive in Iceland. The goal of the project

is showing that glass is not trash but a valuable resource Today, almost all glass is on

Iceland disposable and ends up mostly in landfills. The product line Brot strives

reviving glass, giving it new life and creating a conscious connection with its origin.

The products are glass-blown in molds, giving them an inspiration-based texture

landscape Álfsness, a place that holds a centuries-old glass treasure under the surface.

in landfill at Álfsnes - the final destination for most glass giving in Iceland. The

aim of the project is to protestrate that glass is not waste, but a valuable re-

source. Today, nearly all glass in Iceland is single-use and mostly ends up buried

in landfills. The product series Brot sees to revive glass, give it new life, and

create a conscious connection to its origin. The pieces are glassblown into molds

that give them a texture inspired by the landscape of Álfsnes a place that holds a

centuries-old treasure of glass beneath the surface.
