This blown glass sculpture, enhanced with hot glass additions, sandblasted, and acid etched, draws inspiration from the distinctive shapes of Australian Banksia pods. The intricate design and meticulous craftsmanship embody the essence of renewal and rebirth that these natural forms suggest. Each piece is a celebration of the delicate beauty and resilience found in nature, with the unique textures and patterns of the Banksia pods carefully translated into glass.
The sculpture's refined surface, achieved through sandblasting and acid etching, adds depth and dimension, creating a tactile and visual experience that captivates the viewer. The interplay of light and shadow on the etched glass highlights the organic forms, evoking the pods' transformative process.
