Created in 2007 for the Tempest
exhibition based on the famous Shakespeare play.
*Splash*
40 x 40 x 40 mm, flameworked and
blown soft glass, cubic zirconium
Created in 2007 for the *Bulles
de Verre* exhibition in the Musée Atelier du Verre de Sars-Poterie.
The theme was Air and Water and
I wanted to show the bursting of a soap bubble, the perfect interface
between air and water.
Other beads in the series:
*Sea Rocks*
40 x 40 x 20 mm, flameworked soft
glass
A variation on the Sea Rocks
theme, this bead was created for the *Perles d'ecumes* exhibition
in the Musée de Berck-sur-Mer in 2005 and chosen for the
official exhibition poster. The theme was the sea. It's very impressive
to see your bead on a 5 m high poster outside the museum !
