Sand-cast glass

For the Macro Monday theme "Handmade" (December 916th 2019)

 

Made by fusing natural things such as grass, leaves and stems with molten glass on a bed of sand. Here the overall effect is both natural and abstract, and the 17x15cm square slab of glass glows, translucent in the sunshine. I've shot a 5x4cm segment here (see the shot in the first comment field for the whole block)

The glass artist, Elin Isaksson, makes sand-cast individual pieces as part of her work.

If you are interested to see more, Gallery Heinzel Here has more of her work that her own website ;o)

 

HMM to everyone, and have a happy week ahead ;o)
