The sand-cast bottle shape was formed using a common disposable water bottle.  Seedpods were placed in the mold and burned out in the casting process. Other objects are shown pressed into the glass. I enjoy transforming discarded materials into a provocative visual statement that allows us to examine today's artifacts from another perspective.
