Sora

This football-shaped object, created through the art of glassblowing, features a mesmerising blend of gold and silver fused into black and red glass. The piece exemplifies a distinctive method where vessels are initially made, then broken and reheated to merge together, resulting in deliberate gaps and cracks. Sora means "cosmos" and the piece symbolises the intricate beauty of the universe.
