About the workSmall changes in the viewing angle make this work appear completely different. As early as 1970, two years after Livio Seguso had set up his own business as a freelance artist in Murano, he invited other glassmakers to work in his glass studio. In the course of its success in the 1980s, the studio created editions. They refer to the artist’s individual works, in particular the rounded shape and the floating bubble. However, rich colours are otherwise completely foreign to Seguso’s work.
