Glass, Nature & Culture
As with our environment, each finished recycled glass product is unique, solid yet breakable, and must be handled with delicate care. The up-cycled glass forms are arranged into themes that invite the viewer to contemplate on the delicate balance between humans and nature.

Glass & Nature
As stewards of planet earth we have a responsibility to handle nature carefully. Analogously with glass, once broken, it is impossible to put it back together to its original state of exquisiteness.
