"We artists have always been communicators of a different kind. We are the eyewitnesses of our time and our experience is reflected in works of the different media, using form and color as the means of letting you into the waves of our emotions." --Klaus Moje
His desire and determination to combine colors, led to the understanding of many secrets in glass fusing. Although his work is highly complex, the viewer is not made aware of this technique, but is enraptured with his rich palette and flowing patterns. Klaus Moje's work can be found in over 24 museum collections, and he has regularly exhibited at Glass Galleries since 1979.
