Glass, Pate de verre
4 x 4 x 3 in
Series: Each piece is sold individually ($950), the different images are for context and reference.
Petals of Presence captures the delicate transience of the natural world, preserving three lotus-like blossoms in enduring glass through the meticulous technique of pâte de verre.
The trio features soft, distinct colorways—one blooming in crisp white with a glowing yellow center, another in a warm, gentle pink, and the third in a serene lavender. Each piece is individually crafted using packed glass powders and frits, kiln-fired until the fine particles sinter into a crystalline, sugary surface. Resting atop a dark reflective surface, their mirrored depths recall the stillness of a calm water garden.
The sintered glass catches ambient light from within, drawing the viewer into a state of quiet mindfulness. Petals of Presence serves as an invitation to slow down, honoring the beauty of impermanence and the grounding power of present-moment awareness.
