Translating the Ethereal Beauty of Flowers into Glass: Exploring the Intersection of Art, Indigenous Heritage, and Nature

 

My project aims to translate the delicate nature of flowers into glass while exploring the symbolism present in flora. This collection's deeper meaning derives from my indigenous heritage, where nature has a significant role in our history and culture, as well as illustrating our connection to the world around us. Whether it's the species of plant or flower, the pigments that may be used as dyes, or the application of plants in herbal medicine, floras have special significance. Since plant life is declining, it is important that we preserve what remains and devote our attention to everything that has been lost.
