Three Generations


Blown and cold worked glass
22 H x 50 W x 22 D cm


This work is inspired by the power of people to overcome incredible obstacles in their lives.

Through the use of various forms, multiple layers and unshapen holes in clear glass, my intention is to express the continuity of people’s lives over generations as deep-rooted flowers and strong, united hearts.
