Mare Saare,Tallinn, Estonia
Currently head of the department of glass of the Estonian Academy of Arts, Mare has organized and participated in several glass exhibitions in Estonia and abroad. Her glass art is very sensitive, she touches on the basic values of life. Her dedication to photography allows her a deep insight into both the surrounding world and her own creations.
