“The Human Condition”- Launched on 5th September 2022

“The Human Condition”
5th September – 31st October. Then permanently in our Gallery area.

So, what makes us human? What characterises the essentials of human existence from birth and continues throughout our lives?
We invited our CGS Members to ponder on birth, growth, emotion, aspiration, conflict and mortality or simply demonstrate through their glass what makes them who they are.
Celebrating their own personal condition to let their glass do the talking. They show us what they love, hate, fear and what they hope for.

Description: The Sun and Moon are also symbols of Man and Woman. My sculpture below aims to show this meeting, merging, and the effect of these two heavenly bodies on each other. The Moon has no light of its own, it reflects the light of the Sun. During the day, when the brightness of the Sun is very high, the Moon is not visible, because in this case all the light of the Sun is reflected from it.

Title:The Carrier

Description: Who are we but caretakers of our planet, carrying it like Atlas, on our weak shoulders? But this work can also symbolise how we carry our own emotional baggage and burdens throughout our lives, pulling them behind us, forming us into the adults that we become.
By using blues, it adds a positive note: - there is always hope, since it's the colour of healing, calm and serenity.

Title:Undefined

Description: Establishing connections to the past is how we learn. We always create boundaries as we define new things. I've been experimenting with intermediate materials like wax to find the realm of undefined. Through the lost wax casting process, I link glass and metal in a contrasting way. In this organic and chaotic collaboration, I find a state and a space that is undefined and unbounded.

Description: DISPLACED SERIES, APRIL 2022.
We are living in a troubled world where anger, cruelty, self-interest, and injustice are driving people from their homes. Unfortunately, this has always been the case from time immemorial and for many reasons we seem unable to live peacefully with each other.
In these pieces that idea of a home, a place to live in peace, is something to cherish.

Title:Nature Preserves

Description: Wine bottles were broken and melted on the torch to create natural elements assembled in a scene of small details. It is an effort to return discarded glass to nature. These bottles may take more than 4000 years to decompose. The thought of the quantity of discarded glass on our planet is mind boggling. "Nature Preserved" aims to remind us of our interconnectedness with our environment.

Title:Pilgrims Progress

They are figures travelling through the landscape, perhaps walking with purpose, intent, challenge, loss, migration, search, pilgrimage, both involuntarily or voluntarily. It is for you to decide.

Title:The Carrier

Description: Who are we but caretakers of our planet, carrying it like Atlas, on our weak shoulders? But this work can also symbolise how we carry our own emotional baggage and burdens throughout our lives, pulling them behind us, forming us into the adults that we become.
By using blues, it adds a positive note: - there is always hope, since it's the colour of healing, calm and serenity.

Title:Undefined

Description: Establishing connections to the past is how we learn. We always create boundaries as we define new things. I've been experimenting with intermediate materials like wax to find the realm of undefined. Through the lost wax casting process, I link glass and metal in a contrasting way. In this organic and chaotic collaboration, I find a state and a space that is undefined and unbounded.

Title:Displaced I

Description: DISPLACED SERIES, APRIL 2022.
We are living in a troubled world where anger, cruelty, self-interest, and injustice are driving people from their homes. Unfortunately, this has always been the case from time immemorial and for many reasons we seem unable to live peacefully with each other.
In these pieces that idea of a home, a place to live in peace, is something to cherish.

Title:Legion Series

Title:Nature Preserves

Description: Wine bottles were broken and melted on the torch to create natural elements assembled in a scene of small details. It is an effort to return discarded glass to nature. These bottles may take more than 4000 years to decompose. The thought of the quantity of discarded glass on our planet is mind boggling. "Nature Preserved" aims to remind us of our interconnectedness with our environment.
