Within my glass sculpture I endeavor to communicate a feeling of variant space through areas of transparent mass and uniform surfaces and in turn, the urban or constructed environment through geometric patterning and structure. The patterns are representative of aerial views of landscapes or longitudes and latitudes, a space defined by cultural intervention.
