Cathy
Coverley: Stories Cast in Glass
An artist's interpretation of an event can reflect a
viewer's unique life experience. Like any great
storyteller, making this connection is Cathy Coverley's
goal. During her two-week residency at Uroboros Glass
this past March, the artist created a new body of work -
a series of kiln cast sculptures inspired by reliquary,
to honor the memory of loved ones lost. In these pieces,
Coverley creates a collage of images with copper
inclusions and pre-cast elements to capture a chronology
of time, emotion and the experience of loss.
