Impel 4.0

Impel 4.0

Ornaments you get to keep up year round.

Impel is a series I've been exploring for a number of years. It started as a tiny inset in a friend's backsplash with turquoise and spring green and ambers. The concept came from the thinking about how the social landscape is constantly evolving: we change and are changed by others around us. For Impel 4.0, I used tightly cropped images of the interacting elements. This was my first time to use this lovely coral glass. The glass comes clear and requires kiln firing to realize the rich coral color (many thanks to my glass artist friend Paul Messink for firing it for me). The palette of purples and corals and ambers are luminous against the black grout.
