Title: In this light
Description: Light is the common denominator. This is true of the two cities known as 'beauties on the water,' Venice and Stockholm. It's also true of the pieces presented by Laura de Santillana in her first solo exhibition in Sweden, in Stockholm, in the Nordic light  'In This Light'. The exhibition features works in glass that were painstakingly packed up and transported from Venice, Laura de Santillana's birthplace and home, though she works internationally. Her glass is blown not only in Murano (in Venice), but also in the Czech Republic and Seattle. Her work is represented at museums including The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and she has had solo exhibitions in around 30 cities in Europe, the US and Japan. Just about everywhere except for Stockholm.
