SterborgmanRust is something hybrid, something that grows and can overgrow. When I look at glass it pretends not to move, but when I look away it always feels like it starts to drip and leak. In my art practice, I have worked a lot with rust, which all started with my fascination for colors and pigments. For six years, I have been making my own pigments from plants that I pick in my garden or from wild plants, which I then use to dye organic fabrics or paint on paper. I also like to work with ceramics and glass, but I was never able to use these pigments in ceramics or glass because the high kiln temperatures - between 800˚C and 1240˚C - burn the pigments and turn them black. Rust, being inorganic, doesn’t get burned in the glass oven; instead, it transforms. So, it turned out to be applicable to both ceramics and glass. I search for rusty items as I walk and soak them in water as soon as I come home. The longer I leave the rusty finds in water, the blacker the rust becomes. <br>
