Thaw - Recycled Wine Glass in Leaf Green
Look, this glass is not entirely straight so when pouring a drink into it you need to stop talking about house prices and school catchments areas and focus on not spilling anything.

This piece's sculptural form reflects a conceptual, theme-based approach, which stands in stark contrast to the classical rules of decoration that pervade traditional glassware. Made from 100% broken window and bottle glass melted down and repurposed using old engine oil as fuel.

Background noise:  While this collection was in development we may or may not have been influenced by the following experiences: [01] Watching all of the films of Kore-eda Hirokazu available on DVD in the UK. [02] Listening to Philip Glass - mainly Einstein on the Beach and Metamorphosis [03] Two visits to Gormley at the Royal Academy (one with children)
