Vases Communicant is an installation where I address the museology mode of display by invoking the work of the 20th-century Venetian architect, Carlo Scarpa. Through the lens of Scarpa’s boundless body of work, I have investigated the properties of glass and the potential of compositions. By re-visiting the values that drove his work, I gain a deeper understanding, allowing me the possibility to explore how his mindset is still relevant in this century.

I work with glass to create objects that are exploring the space between functional and sculptural forms by revisiting the infinite potential of traditional skills. Through allusion, experimentation, and reconstruction my goal is to expand the perception of the material values and the material culture of glass.
