ARTIST’S STATEMENT

Using the transparent qualities of glass I seek to explore a tension between perfection and imperfection, beauty and ugliness, or the idea of the constraints or sacrifice required to reach an ideal.

The motif chosen for this piece is a pair of bound foot shoes, taken from a real specimen found in a museum and measuring 13cm long, containing a 3 inch ‘lotus’ foot visible through the glass exterior.
