Molten Landscapes- Rock Extract, ORE - Bethany Wood

by Bethany Wood

£1,700.00

As a multidisciplinary artist, I have begun to merge my two artistic passions, painting and Glass making. I like to express myself with the fluidity of the material. The directional arrangement of a colour palette can form the depth of an abstract Landscape. I use my own paintings as a reference whilst making in the hot shop. Each individual artwork from my series has been inspired by a specific place.

I have extracted the colours and compositions from my photography and have executed them within my new series of Molten Landscapes, titled ‘Rock extract’. 

Metal and mineral extracts play a particularly important part in creating glass colour, the metallic colours in my collection represent the metals which can be extracted from rock. Conceptually the healing properties of stones/rocks can also bring a sense of peace & calmness which is very apt in my mindset with developing this collection. 

Serendipity of abstraction has always been an inspiration for me; the coincidental elements which catch the eye of the viewer. The palette, composition and depth I have attained are taken from nature, with a bold but elegant swipe of my own personal, expressionist style.

If I was not an artist, I would have been a performer. I chose glass, which I do believe is a performance of art; both disciplines create the same energy. There is rhythm and adrenaline in glass making, within a routine that is planned very carefully.
