Sodalite Vitrolith (w/custom stand)

Weston's work is about dualities and the balancing of contrasting forces. They're looking for the place where transparency/opacity, and ephemeral/eternal
coexist, each taking part in creating equilibrium. This dynamic relationship turns fragility into an asset and rigidity into liability.

"This piece of sodalite is almost mottled white with blue instead of the usual blue with white. The white mottles are actually calcite, while its blue color is caused by sulfur in the silicate. I just learned that some people call it Canadia lapis, though, and I’m super down with that."

Cast, cut, ground, and polished. With love.

Please Note: This is an original, one-of-a-kind sculpture. Indoor display only. Some glass forms lenses, which can cause fires—place in direct sunlight with caution. There are bubbles in my work.
