Through hard and pointed tools and abrasive sands, in fact, <strong>the technique allows to create shapes surprisingly soft and sinuous<\/strong>, delicate and impalpable. It is a unique alchemical process in which <strong>opposite aspects are combined to give life to totally new forms and unexpected textures<\/strong>. I am still deeply fascinated by this aspect.<br \/>At a technical level, <strong>engraving involves the removal of part of the material from the surface of the glass<\/strong> in order to create eternal shapes and decorations, without using colour. Depending on the instrument used, <strong>the carving is distinguished from sandblasting, which involves the use of abrasive sands.<\/strong><br \/>The increase in the depth of the incision leads, finally, to the realization of the <strong>bas-relief<\/strong>.<br \/>Just as vision is the principal sense that allows us to <strong>perceive the three-dimensionality of objects<\/strong>, so these techniques are at their best on <strong>smooth, thick and transparent glass<\/strong>, creating all-round effects through the engravings.<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3016 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.benvenuto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Immagine2-300x184.jpg\" alt=\"incisione_sabbiatura\" width=\"300\" height=\"184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.benvenuto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Immagine2-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.benvenuto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Immagine2-768x470.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.benvenuto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Immagine2-800x491.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.benvenuto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Immagine2-700x429.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.benvenuto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Immagine2.jpg 802w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>Over time I have learned about glass in its fragility, elasticity, rigidity and robustness.
