I want to make things that nobody has seen before but seem familiar. Glass gives me the opportunity to have infinite possibilities within the limitations of one material. It has everything for me. Glass, being of geological ingredients, shows an assumption of subterranean origin. There is that underlying industrial component to glass that always seems to be there for me—mineral-like, aquatic, optical, and metallic. Glass can be contemporary or ancient. It explores optics and multidimensional travel.

It is important to me to create objects that are not obvious in material or substance. I enjoy when people spend time with a piece, exploring it and finding something. As a creator, it is my challenge and mission to create something that doesn’t already exist or to change its perspective.

Aquatic movement and solid stone—the Vesicular series exists in between. It expresses an explanation of the process and creation. The vesicular form is also not obvious as a material. What is it? Abstract and random, the hollow cells are imperfect and perfect. The coarse exposure of the edges, often combined with solid transparent polished glass, contains a relationship and contrast that in itself feels complete. Like life, there are smooth, clear moments and rough, unpredictable moments. To view them together as a composed object is a compatibility of polarity.

Working in glass has been a continuous journey for me. Because I enjoy change, I’m constantly exploring and designing. I’m like a mad scientist in my studio, experimenting and combining ideas to find new ways of reaching what I want to express. As a creator, it is my challenge and mission to create something that doesn’t already exist or to change its perspective.
