Aulisca VIII

Experiment

Traditional

The Aulisca series is made by fusing delicate lines of glass multiple times, with extensive cold work taking place between each firing. The two fused halves are finally slumped to create the desired shape and form. Once sandblasted the intricate pieces are sewn together using thin lengths of thread, this contrast of colour and material joining each of the fifteen points where the glass halves meet and forming a striking web through the centre of each sculpture.
