"I dive in and drown" by David Flower
These pieces are made as a response to a personally challenging year. I needed to make something that was about purity and perfection; these sculptures therefore are about dew drops. They conjure something magical, something elfin and they encourage the viewer to take a look at the world from a different point of view by using the refractive qualities of the optical crystal. The more one looks the more one sees, as it is with self. They are made in conjunction with the very talented wood sculptor Martin Beat and we will be making 500 individual sculptures in this series over the next two years!!
David’s extensive expertise as a craftsman enables him to take on commissions of varied scale and complexity. He has lead on £250,000 sculptures alongside completing chandeliers, dining tables and his own beautiful pieces.
As an experienced maker David is in demand to make the work of many other glass designers. He worked closely with the celebrated Peter Layton for many years, symbiotically designing and making for the great man. Now, as ever, David finds that making the work of other artists represents his greatest challenge and Fran Staniland, Katherine Wightman and Gary Webb continue to stretch the master’s abilities.
“There is nothing that is impossible in glass. The material must be listened to, respected and worked with but ultimately will be coaxed into becoming. You cannot force it, but then again you cannot let it force you, you are in a symbiotic relationship with it; if you don’t love it then it will not love you back.” ......
