In May 2017, Breaths in Glass made its first international workshop at Murano in Venice.

We invited random persons on the streets of Venice to blow glass with us at Abate Zanetti School of Glass. Chance made us get together with 5 German speaking persons for an afternoon of saving the forms of our breaths in glass spheres. We were very well instructed by a group of skilled glass maestros in the furnace.

These spheres are now saved for future art installations.

The trip was made with the support of IASPIS, The Swedish Arts Grants Committee.

Our fifth and sixth stop for Breaths was made within Bästa Biennalen, arranged by Moderna Museet in Malmö in Höör and in Malmö during the autumn school leave October 26-29 in 2015.

In Höör, children and youth helped us blow in glass at Incendi glasblåseri in cooperation with Helena Dunér and Espen Jensen. The glass piece was exhibited at Höör library during October. There was also the possibility for the audience to participate in creating the art piece directly, as Breaths #5 was activated on spot.

Here is a radio broadcast by Malin Thelin at P4 Malmöhus, Sveriges Radio: “They gather the form of a breath”.

In Malmö, at the children and youth section within the Malmö City Library, Breaths #6 was activated on the 28-29th of October together with participants visiting the library. The exhibition continued for two weeks.
