Through the study of botanical sources of inspiration, ' Coalescence ii' exists as piece of collected, abstracted, surreal & almost alien piece of sculptural glass. Derived from many different points of reference, such as twisting vines & microscopic pollen, I explore form, space, material & texture, using only the purity of transparent glass & light Coalescence ii is now Approx. a year a half old. It was the piece that I felt truly satisfied at having made. I now see it as the 'calling card' for myself & my aesthetic, & 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 accute & critical feelings about glass. These 'ideas' eventually led me to make ' Coalescence ii' & that now feeds into all my bespoke designing work, & is helping me to forge out a career in glass. The piece represented in the images is only the starting point. To date I have made approx 7 variations on Coalescence, all which are unique pieces.
