Artwork description: Perceptible explores the human form, abstracting it through glass to create uncanny mildly familiar forms. These textured lifelike pieces are created through mould blowing into casts taken of the artist’s wrist. By transforming the body into a glass object and segmenting it, it can be defamiliarized. The unusual shapes and irregularities of the wrist become more visible when seen on these hollow forms. The texture of the skin pores and the lines from where the palm folds become obvious blemishes on the clear glass.
Through the transparency of glass, direct replications of the human body can be turned into imperceptible unhuman objects. The translucent, luminous appearance of the glass, devoid of colour enables the pieces to maintain a ghostly, unreal quality.
