Lisbeth Biger

Moshav Aviezer, Israel

Lisbeth Biger is a senior lecturer at Bezalel Academy of art and Design in Jerusalem, and head of glass studies. Lisbeth is interested in finding new ways to use all kinds of discarded glass. Instead of putting more glass out in the world, Lisbeth uses discarded reading glasses, and gives them new life. The objects are totally wearable, and surprisingly strong, as they have a plastic or metal frame. Each piece is adorned with a different hand engraved insect.
