Structure

1″ diameter, glass

I’ve always liked to look inside things, to figure out how they work and how they grew.  I got to use an electron microscope during a program at the museum of science as kid, and it was so wonderful to see the building-blocks of stuff, not looking like perfect circles, smooth lines and curves the way they tend to in illustrations, but with torn edges and bumps and bruises.  This little pendant has its own structure, and if you look closely you’ll see the rough corners and irregular cleaving of the glass rods.
