Göran Wärff
About the artist
Göran Wärff is a d yen of Kosta Boda and the entire Kingdom of Crystal – a legend who is connected to our history and who has been part of shaping the Swedish glass tradition for more than 60 years .
In his long career as a glass artist and designer , Göran Wärff has had ountless exhibitions in many countries . He has spent time living abroad in Australia and the UK , but he has always continued to create both utility and art glass for Kosta Boda .
Nature ’ s constant presence in Göran Wärff ’ s glass art is clear . “ But it ’ s easy to say nature . It isn ’ t always that literal . I find the arallel processes of growth and decay to be fascinating . The sea and the light are there as well , of course .”
Optics constitutes another concept with which Göran Wärff is a sociated . His art is characterized by continuous experimentation with clear glass , with hints of color . A hallmark of his creations is that they often present other optical effects in addition to those apparent upon fi st glance , like treasure and light phenomena glimmering from the depths of the ocean .
