Proof of Rain
Proof of Rain is a contemporary glass sculpture inspired by rainfall. The work is made of hot shaped glass in varying shades of blue. Small droplets, formed through flameworking with a controlled splashing effect, represent raindrops. A blown blue form beneath the droplets represents the accumulation of life experiences. The sculpture measures 380 by 200 by 450 millimeters. Proof of Rain is shown as a static installation, and light reveals the depth and reflections of the glass. The intent is to join nature and craft in one form.
