Stefano’s adventure in the world of stained glass began in childhood, growing up in close contact with the family workshop<\/strong>. About ten years ago, he took over from his parents, giving a new direction to the family business. But his choice was not taken for granted: after artistic studies in high school and at the Academy of Fine Arts, Stefano also experimented with other paths, working as a graphic designer and in a furnace. In the end, however, the call of stained glass made itself heard, and Stefano decided to carry on the family heritage, albeit with his own spirit.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Entering Stefano’s workshop, you breathe a unique atmosphere where past and present blend together<\/strong>. On one side, there are elements that recall tradition, such as a large compass used for cutting glass and a machine for leading that Stefano himself modified to adapt to his needs. On the other side, the artistic dimension that lives in the polychrome glass<\/strong>, in the rolls of different decorations and finishes, and in a stained glass window in the process of being completed on a table shines through.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

One of the distinctive features of Stefano’s work is the use of traditional Venetian “rulli”<\/strong>, discs of blown glass that are cut and assembled to create stained glass windows. Stefano learned to master this technique by observing his parents, but he did not stop at simple reproduction. “I had to do a job of enriching the work itself. Not only stained glass but everything that comes around it,” he explains.
This attitude of contamination is reflected in all his projects, where tradition is constantly reinterpreted and enriched by new ideas and techniques<\/strong>.
Stefano is not afraid to experiment, to make glass dialogue with other materials and forms of expression, always in search of new technical and aesthetic challenges. It is precisely this ability to make respect for tradition and innovative drive coexist that makes his work so unique and fascinating.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

But Stefano’s experimentation does not stop there. Thanks to collaborations with innovative realities such as Rehub<\/strong>, he is also exploring the integration of glass with digital technologies<\/strong> and computational design<\/strong>.<\/div>
Together with Matteo Silverio of Rehub, Stefano has created installations such as “Transient Glare<\/strong>“, in which fragments of Murano glass are suspended in mobile structures created with 3D printing, creating plays of light and transparency. A way to give new life to precious waste and create sustainable works of art.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The theme of sustainability is another common thread in Stefano’s work. In his workshop, processing waste is not thrown away but carefully selected and stored by color and type. These “noble waste” become the raw material for new creations, thanks also to the collaboration with Rehub which has developed a system to shred and recompose them into 3D-printed objects<\/strong>. A virtuous example of circular economy applied to art and design.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

For Stefano, the future of Murano’s glassmaking tradition lies in sharing knowledge and openness to contamination<\/strong> with other worlds. His gaze is focused on dialogue with designers and artists from other disciplines, to circulate ideas and visions. Because it is from exchange that the most innovative intuitions are born.
With his curious and experimental approach, Stefano Bullo<\/strong><\/a> demonstrates that the centuries-old art of stained glass still has much to say. And that the future of this tradition is in the hands of those who, like him, know how to look at the past with respect and at the future with courage, without ever stopping to look for new paths.
