Systema Naturae
March 13 - April 10, 2009

In the design process of my work I look for how nature evolves.  I look for the underlying logic and formulas that create nature’s designs, not so much to imitate but to look at how it is formed.  I break down the design to the basic elements or fractals which repeat in a form of mathematical formula which build up to make the whole design.  This is applied  to expose the many qualities of glass.  I push the boundaries of what skills I have developed in cold working glass in conjunction with the skills of others that I work with in hot glass to finally achieve my work. 

This body of work was inspired by the wondrous designs of forms that make up the coral reefs and beaches very close to where I live in Western Australia.  They are very much a part of my life.  I also gained access to the Natural Museum and over a period of a month I researched and studied the many specimens which became the basis of the design for this exhibition.
