Glass Fruits

This series of glass fruit explores a familiar ornament of another era and reimagines it in a new form.

Through the skilled process of glass casting, the artist pays homage to the blown glass fruit makers, and their collectors, from the 1960’s.

These objects are intended to provoke the senses and occupy a space where time, unlike real fruit, maybe kinder to them.
