"Splash": bird bath in slate, glass and metal-2011
- 50cm x 72cm
- Deeply embedded glass pebbles in the bath basin
catch light and water movement beautifully. The rim is composed of multiple sections of cut slate and glass. Some glass sections are partially clear reflecting splashes of colour on light ground positions. The largest level area of slate on the rim has slithers of inserted glass uprights shedding colour across the surround in slaking sunlight. The sea glass edge detail is framed and protected by a nickel plated staple, cold-forged out of a spoon handle.
And an interesting little video of the basin process.......
