A statement from the artist: I work in blown glass, seeking both beauty and functionality. I believe that art/craft is the antidote to the ‘throw-away’ culture and that the objects we surround ourselves with should engage our affection and elevate our collective identity. By making precious and durable objects, we enrich ourselves and ensuing generations. This vase was donated by Minh Martin an alum of Charlestown Playhouse. It's valued at $125.
