About the artwork
Standing vertical configurations combine free-blown glass elements with rusted metal components, creating an interplay between transparent and opaque surfaces. The upper section features an elongated anthropomorphic visage executed in dark tones with vivid blue facial accents, supported by a cylindrical blown glass body enclosing silver-toned leaf details. A curved patinated metal blade flanks the central glass mass, anchored to a heavy baseplate that grounds the vertical structure.
Expert opinion
This creation exemplifies the maker's focus on material contrasts, pairing fragile hot-worked glass with rigid industrial metals. The integration of metal foils and torch-worked surface details reflects traditional studio glass practices adapted to contemporary sculptural forms.
