Rusting landscape - contemporary modern abstract glass sculpture

2011

Memento Clear Cell is a unique contemporary modern glass object made by Australian glass artist Emily McIntosh. This sculpture is made up of three blown clear glass components, small, medium and large, that are all lathe worked with a brushed translucent finish. The artist has been pursuing themes of touch as human memory through marking the glass skin.
