FALLING FOR GOLD

Artist: Layne Rowe

Edition: Unique

Measurements: H 130mm W 90mm D 90mm

Description

Using glass as a seductive and fragile medium to provoke thoughts and contemplate social issues.

This beautiful handmade grenade has been hand-sculpted with precision to acknowledge the craft of weaponry. The piece’s accuracy has been achieved by creating hot-formed elements blown and sculpted as close to the required shape and size as possible, then cold worked with stone wheels and diamond tools to achieve accuracy.

The piece contains canework to create a myriad of colours within. This represents the rainbow as a symbol of peace while the gold rim represents the “pot of gold at the end of the rainbow”.

It is there to offer an alternative. Would you swap gold for peace?

Created by British artist Layne Rowe and signed.
