Glass know-how

Longer articles from different viewpoints to the material

Our goal is to create a collection of articles and essays on glass as an artistic material, written by different professionals within the glass scene. The text can be in Finnish or English. We don't unfortunately have the resources to have them translated, please turn to an on-line translator :)

Articles

Introducing!

We regularly invite glassmakers and members of related interest groups to be a FiG Activist and to tell us about their work and ideas/dreams/future visions in and around the material. There are other ways to crab FiG visibility, see below!

International Network

Let's get to know each other first and create a new and more open glass community here first. Our plan is to include global glass informations on the FiG site, but there's a lot to do first.

What is FIG?

The FIG website provides a platform for up-to-date and constructive discussion (due to limited funding we start by linking to a Facebook group), open sharing of knowledge and useful networking IN THE HEART OF THE FINNISH GLASS SCENE.

 In the future we will expand the site to better serve a larger audience of GLASS LOVERS; the collectors and other interest groups, also internationally.

FIG's vision

The FiG Vision is a connected and safe glass scene with opportunities to share, discover, research and discuss. We aim for mutual development, creativity and collaboration. 

FIG's values

Our core values include quality, access and support
