ABOUT tinaax
tinaax’s crafts & design in glas & fabric are made by me, tina axelsson, living & working in malmö, sweden, since new year 2009.
to me it is always exciting to get acquainted with glass in all of it’s various expressions & forms; hot, flowing, cold, firm, transparent or opaque. to experiment with this material is hard to resist. i work in techniques such as fusing (melting) & sandblasting as well as designing objects to be blown at the glassworks.
when it comes to fabrics it is the wonderful sensation of natural fibers such as cotton, hemp, linnen, silk & wool wich entices me to create & develop in different ways.
the fact that fabrics finaly are incresingly being produced organically is an extra bonus and not a day too soon.
since it is important to me to support sustainability, as well as fair working conditions in the textile industry, i strive toward developing tinaax production as organically as possible.
