Handblown glass

“Redundant Vessels” are comprised of hand-blown glass pieces that fit and stack together. More than the sum of the parts, these objects begin as an exploration in form, colour and transparency. They go on to reveal an ambiguity that denotes figurative forms,
functionality, interior space, and a hint of sexuality.
