Lotte Glob - Magma

"My creative process involves a close, continuing and intense relationship with the landscape and wilderness of the Scottish Highlands, a part of which is long hikes into the mountains, bringing back materials such as rocks and sediments. By working directly with these materials in a raw and unrefined state, combined with different clays, I create sculptural forms which are direct responses to the materials' physical nature. The sculptures are then fired to 1300 C - white heat, undergoing physical alterations similar to the landscape's volcanic origins.

It is essential for me that the firing creates the conditions for the materials to become active again, reliving this metamorphosis. High risks are often taken during this process of melting rocks, glass, clay and sediment. Despite my knowledge, developed through numerous experiments, the excitement of this process drives me on to take calculated risks as I push these materials to an extreme where they will be irrevocably transformed."

Lotte Glob was born in Denmark in 1944 and has studied under some of Denmark and Scotland’s most acclaimed artists, including Gutte Eriksen and Knut Jensen. She has undertaken study tours all over the world, from France, Spain and Iceland, to the USA, Australia and New Zealand.

She has had solo exhibitions all over the UK, as well as in Denmark. Her work is found in the collections of the Museum of Fine Art, Copenhagen, the Royal Scottish Museum, Edinburgh, the Dundee Art Gallery and Museum, the Maclaurin Gallery, Ayr and the Victoria & Albert Library Collection in London. Private collections are also held worldwide.
