Earth geography has always been an
interest of mine.
Within this, I have focused on
crystals and stalactite/stalagmites to inspire my glass ring collection, as I
am intrigued by the angular qualities and triangular structures.
I sculpt my rings in jewellers wax,
and then create plaster moulds from these. The wax is then melted out of the
mould and replaced with glass. I appreciate glass as a medium, as it is
unpredictable how the colour will flow inside the mould. This to me also
relates to lava flowing beneath the earth’s surface.
Cracking each mould open is like a
surprise present.
