About this Artist

Ann Alderson Biba

"I seek beauty and movement in all things, and I choreograph the forms into the glass, capturing for an instant the dance they are living."

Ann Alderson Biba loves working with glass for its magical balance of fragility and strength.

She feels that combining nature (for its simplicity and universal messages) with glass (for its light, joyous feeling) yields the most important feature in her work: beauty.

Biba's' forms are created by first blowing a hollow sphere of glass. Sandblasting allows her to remove unwanted areas to create dynamic and often realistic structures. Finally, colors are hand painted and fired onto the vessels.

Not what I'd expected.
I loved this bowl in the catalog. Your description, and large picture attracted me, but did not meet my expectations. It was not well packed, Just bubble wrap and straight into the box. I was VERY disappointed not to even have a brochure, or write up about the Artist included. The Bowl was smaller than I expected, very dull in colors and the carved glass is rigid and did not flow. I was about to return it, when my daughter suggested I hold it DIRECTLY under a lamp. It came alive enough for me to feel bad about returning it. The only way I am using it is as a decorative item that would be missed unless I turned the light on it every time.I know it was MY choice. I decided to splurge and paid a lot, because I believe in supporting good Artists. I do not do that often. My home is full of Art, and I really loved your website and the Artists you represent, but based on this experience, I would not buy anything from you again. Sorry.
