After moving from Hawaii to New Mexico, Steffen’s Desert Collection series became a way to express the colors and textures of his new home in the high desert. In this piece, two fragments from a previously blown work are slumped into flat sheets and fused onto a blown platter that serves as the background.
This piece is to be displayed on a wall or a stand.

On the Edge relies on spontaneous processes, pushing the glass to the brink of collapse while shaping the form on the blow pipe. There is no preconceived notion of the finished piece, aside from the colors and the composition of the lines. Fragments from the blown form are then fused and layered through multiple firings, ultimately bringing the work to its final form.
