Hydrangeas and Ginkgo's
This is before the Kiln firing, I cut the glass into squares and rectangles. Two pieces for each plant. The preserved flower/leaf is then sandwiched between the two. So two protective sides are formed. The pieces are then fired in the kiln.
After the firing. The glass turns to honey, bubbles form within the two layers of glass. They remind me of last breaths. The outline of the plant is carefully preserved, a delicate shadow, the memory of the plant seems to of been gently drawn on.
