Through study of botanical sources of inspiration,
'Coalescence ii' exists as piece of collected,
abstracted, surreal and almost alien piece of
sculptural glass. Derived from many different points
of reference, such as twisting vines and microscopic
pollen, I explore form, space, material and texture,
using only the purity of transparent glass and light.
It was the piece that I felt truly satisfied at
having made. it never fails to be a
source of inspiration. It in effect represents the
journey of development I went through at the RCA
to develop my acute and critical feelings about
glass. These 'ideas' eventually led me to make
'Coalescence ii' and that now feeds into all my
bespoke designing work, and is helping me to forge
out a career in glass.
