Mit Danmark

Mine rødder Jeg er født, opvokset og bor midt i den storslåede vestjyske natur tæt ved havet i Danmark.

Min inspiration Gennem årelang designarbejde med glasmaterialet, har jeg udviklet min helt unikke teknik, hvor jeg fortæller historier med glasset og bruger formen til at underbygge mine historier og temaer.

En af mine vigtigste sparringspartnere er lyset. Her inspirerer og udfordrer kontraster og transparente effekter mig i det skulpturelle formunivers.

My Roots

I was born and raised live near the sea in the middle of the magnificent natur of the western part of Denmark.

My inspiration Through years of design work with the glass material, I have developed my own unique technique where I storytell with the glass using the form to support my stories and themes.

One of my main sparring partners is the light. Here I’m inspired and challenged by the contrast and the transparent effects and by the sculptural form universe.

Teamleder for det danske kokkelandshold Ulla Pedersen:

”Kokkelandsholdet har valgt at benytte Agnethes skønne glaskunst til at kreere et stort serveringsfad, som skal bruges til en kold fiskeret til 8 personer.

Agnethe er utrolig kreativ og fantastisk dygtig til at udforme flotte udtryk i glaskunst, og vi kan være med i den indledende proces omkring valg af glas, former og farver og derefter lade kunsten flyde.

Vi er så glade for, at vi har fået denne mulighed for at samarbejde omkring dette project.”

Reference

Team leader of the Danish National Culinary Team:

“The National Culinary Team has chosen to use Agnethe’s beautiful glass art to create a large serving plate to be used for a cold fish for eight people.

Agnethe is incredibly creative and extremely good at designing a beautiful expression in the glass, and we can be part of the initial process surrounding the selection of glass types and colours and then let the art flow.

We are so happy that we got this opportunity to cooperate on this project.”

Ingrid Rothe, Holstebro:

”Kære Agnethe Valget var ikke svært, da vi skulle finde en meget unik og speciel gave til vores søn, der netop er blevet juraprofessor. Det skulle selvfølgelig være dig, vi måtte have til at hjælpe os. Du har til fulde lavet det kunstværk, vi havde håbet på.

Med din hjælp med selve glaskunsten og hvilke farver, der passer bedst sammen, blev vi enige om Livets Sejlads. Sejlene var henholdsvis orange og grønne. I det grønne sejl var der lavet lovparagraffer i et bånd.

Reference

Vores søn blev ovenud glad og lykkelig for den smukke gave. Lige præcis kun til ham, og han så også med det samme, hvor mange tanker og tid, der er lagt i gaven.

Det skal også lige nævnes, at farverne passer perfekt i vores søns hjem. Så tusinde tak for kunstværket, Agnethe”.

Ingrid Rothe, Holstebro:

”Dear Agnethe, The choice was not difficult, since we had to find a very unique and special gift for our son, who had just become a law professor. It, of course, had to be you that we asked to help us. You have fully made the artwork, we had hoped for.

With your help with the actual glass art and the selection of colours which fitted the best, we agreed on Life Voyage. The sails were orange and green. Section marks were made in the green sails.

Our son was overjoyed and happy about the beautiful gift. A unique piece - only for him, and he immediately saw how many thoughts and how much time had been put into the gift.

It should also be mentioned that the colours fit perfectly in our son’s home. So thank you very much for the work of art, Agnethe.”

”When I work with my art I go into my bubble, forgetting myself letting my imagination and the glass take control.”

”I don’t draw sketches, but let the colours and shapes inspire me. The glass has its own life and during the process I get many challenges and opportunities.”

Agnethe Maagaard

”I work through the motives from my remembrance. Then the inspiration is stored up and is transformed into something I can use in my art .”
