Radiance<br />
Ceramic, Glass and wire<br />
40cm x 70cm (approx.)<br />
‘Radiance’ is a mixed media sculpture which<br />
aims to show the shimmering golden light<br />
streaming through the delicate tracery of birch<br />
trees in the autumn. The piece is constructed<br />
from ceramic porcelain paper clay, copper<br />
wire and glass both cut and fused mounted on<br />
a natural oak wooden base. Several different<br />
techniques and processes have been used<br />
and combined together to achieve the finished<br />
piece. The internal light shines through the<br />
cracks and textures in the central ceramic<br />
piece illuminating the fused glass sections and<br />
the coloured glass leaves above. The fragility<br />
of the construction serves to emphasise the<br />
ethereal nature of the delicate birch trees<br />
and the fleeting time available to enjoy this<br />
beautiful autumn light show. The uplifting<br />
emotional reaction to this kaleidoscope of light<br />
and colour is somehow enhanced by<br />
the transience of the moment.<br />
