a sneak peak at the Crumbling Ecologies Project....

I have had a few requests for a sneak peak into the goings on at Crumbling Ecologies Head Quarters .... you may have heard me talking about a series of solo works called The Beauty of Weeds that will accompany the other works in the exhibition.....


the sketch quick sketch- hand blown glass museum domes, fused into the surface of the tables from my studio that we have been making the bulk of the project on.



Blowing the Glass Museum Domes... A special thank you to Laurel, Tegan and Kirstin for their help with these big mama domes - you were amazing, I think we broke the Monash hot shop record for the size of bubbles being blown! Laurel your skills are amazing!


The tables from the studio have evolved as the project has. In a way the studio space in which the work was created has become so much a part of the work that it has become infused with the work itself. Check out its transformation in progress from the studio to nearly being completed....


Inside the domes will sit the plants I have been growing from the excess plant waste salvaged from the rest of the project. The next stage of the work will happen all in the gallery space on installation day, the fusion of - Art School - Studio Space - Gallery and Museum will become complete!
