James has mounted a set of hot chipped glass monolithic sculpture onto a hand brushed black aluminium supported by titanium armatures. The opaque glass sculptures are the result of a constant experimentation with glass as a sculptural material. James has chipped off the surface of the moulded glass, a process that requires in-depth experience of the material as a blow to soft or too hard could shatter the glass. After flame polishing, the edges of the glass are no longer sharp and can be touched, despite their appearance.
