Re:Blow / Transformative Toast / The Biography of a Cup / The Finite Possibilities of One
As former classmates and glassblowing partners, Sean Salstrom and Helen Lee reinstate their working partnership, despite now living on opposite coasts. This project involves a repeated process of melting down a glass cup, blowing a new cup for the sake of toasting their friendship, and exchanging via post. his project will conceivably continue for the remainder of the artists’ lives. Viewers are invited to purchase postcards and continue to send Sean and Helen’s glasses in the mail to friends and loved ones.
