Untitled 3
I work in glass sculpture. During the pandemic I felt myself trapped. My work in knitted glass became cage-like, with interior spaces as metaphor for shelter. I began working with LED lighting, having illuminated objects being contained within a cage - the cage of social distancing during the pandemic. The light inside was me, trapped, but projecting optimism out into the world.
