Ancient Rings 78 is a kiln-formed glass vessel that embodies movement, depth, and the dynamic interplay of color and light. Meticulously crafted from thousands of cut pieces of sheet glass, this piece features a canvas of ivory rings holding a flowing field of turquoise in varying values, creating a soft ombré effect. Interspersed within this vibrant expanse are marigold windows, which cast a radiant, warm glow that shifts with the viewer’s perspective.

The turquoise arcs ripple across the surface, evoking energy in motion—reminiscent of currents, celestial pathways, or shifting landscapes. The marigold windows, embedded within the turquoise field, accentuate the composition’s rhythm and depth, balancing the interplay between transparency and opacity.

As with all works in the Ancient Rings series, this vessel is an exploration of transformation—where thousands of discrete elements come together to form a unified, cohesive composition. Its luminous quality and intricate patterns invite viewers to contemplate the convergence of structure and fluidity, offering a visual meditation on the organic flow of time and the interconnectedness of existence.
