SCULPTURAL Glass

Aoife’s artistic glass work explores the interrelationships of mind and body with a focus on the dysfunction of specific body organs, caused by anxiety and stress. The symptomatic damage caused to our body organs through stress and anxiety is hidden but can lead to the eventual collapse of proper bodily functions. As a visual artists Aoife is drawn to the body organ aesthetic and creates sculptural pieces in which the body organs are shown with some degree of damage or deterioration. Her approach to the organs is to have an artistically interpreted shape drawn from medical diagrams and from the organs themselves. In creating this artistic work I adopt a more sculptural approach to glass as a material and work to push the boundaries of the material.
