Kiko Lopez
Born in 1962, lives and works in Provence, France
Kiko Lopez is a special kind of glass artist; one who embodies an artist’s sensibilities with the long-learned talents of a craftsman. Educated as an architect and industrial designer he has been combining techniques from diverse disciplines to innovate in his glass work for over 30 years.
"The design should be generous…
In the quality of materials and the timeless purity of form. No matter what it is research and rigor, multiple tests and errors, it is our humanity that reveals, in the end, the presence of the object."
For the last twelve years he has been creating his unique tableau mirror or “shadow drawings.” Using the many techniques he has gathered from elder craftsmen, old texts, and his own explorations and developments, these are one-of-a kind objects. Kiko’s combination of rigorous craftsmanship with his own unique artistic talent appeals to architects, interior designers, galleries and collectors around the world.
