TAPESTRY
The Tapestry panels, bowls and trays are widely recognized for their intricate patterning and coloration. Inspired by repetitive rows in fields of grain and hand woven fabrics, pieces in the Tapestry series are composed of linear patterns of glass strands creating intricate fiber like textures. The wall mounted panels are subtly warped, alluding to cloth in a breeze, expressing softness in a hard material. The composition of these glass pieces explores the juncture between organic and geometric.
