MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE
By morphing industrial skills that are being eroded by time with exquisite glass art, Elena has produced a collection that allows for the contemplation of the devastation of the coral reefs by bringing awareness of what we are losing with what is needed to restore and preserve these delicate eco systems.
REEF FORMATIONS
With this collection Elena wanted to draw parallels between the coral reef devastation and the slowly eroding skills of flameworking. Her aim is to highlight attention to these issues and the collection uses Rock and Marble as a base in which borosilicate glass is mounted.
