Rift explores the quiet architecture of folded light. Made with kiln formed glass, the paired panels hold a subtle translucency that shifts with the viewer’s movement, recalling veils, tides, and atmospheric gradients. The gentle undulation evokes the softness of fabric while maintaining the inherent stillness of glass, creating a tension between fluidity and structure.
By presenting two forms in dialogue, the piece considers duality and reflection, and the way one element shapes the perception of the other. Surface bubbles and tonal variations remain visible as traces of the making process, allowing light to populate the interior of the glass and animate its surface. The result is a meditative object that slows looking, inviting attention to nuance, to luminosity, and to the quiet complexities that emerge within repetition.
