Ancient Rings 102

Peacock Blue, Sunset Coral, and Amber emerge from a field of French Vanilla glass, appearing as luminous inlays set within a finely textured surface. Bands of color travel across the vessel in shifting rhythms, gathering and dispersing as they circle the form. A solitary amber circle anchors the composition, providing a warm point of focus amid the movement.

The vessel's matte surface softens reflection and allows the color to speak with clarity. As the form curves inward and downward, the geometric elements change their relationships to one another, creating new visual conversations from every angle. Repetition, variation, and spacing combine to produce a sense of motion that feels both deliberate and intuitive.

Constructed from thousands of individually placed glass elements, Ancient Rings 102 explores the balance between structure and spontaneity. The composition invites slow observation, revealing subtle connections, unexpected alignments, and moments of quiet discovery within the vessel's layered visual field.
