About the Artwork

Bed, 2018, Materials: Mattress, Cast glass pillow.

The bed is a significant part of the piece; it is a multifaceted object. A place where we are conceived, where we’re born, where we rest and where we die. This means it’s a liminal object holding both life and death. The melted glass pillow expresses the presence and absence of a body, it’s materiality echoing the fragility of life.
