The works selected for the exhibition in the Tomas Bata University in Zlín,
Geir Nustad is combining his experience as a craftsman, being trained in Kosta Glass center (Scandinavia’s most renowned Glass School), with new and refreshing ideas on how we experience Society. In his installation ‘who am I?’, he reflects on the changing in shape. How have we become the one that we are, are we moulded by society, are we unique creatures that are free in the choice of what to do, or are we just tools to be used as it fits “the masters”. He has blown heads, that are molded after his own face, that changes from the first a sculptural head to losing more and more of the facial features to become a clean charaf in the end. The colors will also change whit the form and function, from a light whit like colour to gray. He chose to make the change in color to make the change in shape stronger.
