£600.00
Handmade clear borosilicate network glass bowl, attached coloured Borosilicate detailed glass octopus. Inspired by the elegant flowing movements of Octopus and their relationship to their environment.
Based in Stone, Staffordshire, Elizabeth Welch brings stunning realism to her glass menageries. The natural world has always informed and inspired her and is the central influence for all her work, she is continually seeking to capture the ephemeral beauty of nature in all she creates.
Borosilicate Flameworking allows her to explore and discover many ways to express her admiration and appreciation for nature and pay homage to its creations.
Octopii are an ongoing theme in her work, since the beginning of her lampworking journey, they are a fascination. Artistically with elegant flowing movements colours and shapes as well as from a scientific point of view, their evolutional branch breaks away from that of ours so long ago but we still ended up evolving many shared adaptions.
