Throughout my MA studies I’ve explored colour and pattern, using glass and found myself always coming back full circle to traditions, colour and  pattern. Traditions in any culture have always intrigued me even since childhood through my morris dancing hobby. This has been something I wanted to celebrate traditions from different cultures to highlight the diversifying society. Taking this context and my medium of glass, I developed a series of highly detailed ornate glass vessels to portray these chosen traditions in their simplest form using their representation symbols and notions of their colour scheme.
