Portrait : Nooa Hietaniemi.

Nathan ( b.2000 in La Teste de Buch ) is a young french craftsmen from France who’s designing objects and installations made of glass. After having followed an education in glass cold working and glass design at the national glass school of France, he moved to the island of Bornholm in Denmark in 2021 to develop his appeal for glassblowing.

He is putting a lot of attention to the quality of having a well designed and finished production ; Considering that the technical part is essential and should be shown as an advantage in the piece's design.

His works are showing clear tones, sometimes warm ones and keep simple shapes and profiles. Thanks to his products, he aims to tell stories about different notions. These notions are few, and can be for example the way that the object has been produced, (Blown yurts) or a short anecdote about a specific community. (Pilgrim’s mirrors)

To conclude briefly, he can be see as a narrator using the glass material as a medium to spread informations, to pay homage. He often highlights it by saying that telling something is the only important thing in his productions ; because the piece is what stays after. It stays, to share something, without needing the person behind it.
