Jeremy Maxwell Wintrebert trained in glassblowing techniques during a cosmopolitan apprenticeship between the United States and Europe from 1998 to 2007, before settling in France, where he alternates between working in workshops, residencies, workshops, and conferences. In 2015, within the Viaduc des Arts, located in a historic Parisian craft district known for its excellence, he opened his studio, where he blows all of his creations. The studio, which is made up of a team of around twenty people, now spans more than 500 square meters. A perfect blend of passion, creativity, craftsmanship, and teamwork, where knowledge transfer plays a key role, Jeremy Maxwell Wintrebert’s creations are all unique and blown without molds.
Drawing on memories from his childhood in Africa, Jeremy Maxwell Wintrebert creates works inspired by African art with a figurative tendency—evolving gradually toward a form of externalization. He then describes his environment through an aesthetic closer to abstraction.
