Spirals - 2D Wall Sculpture

Two entwined but contrasting spirals, one in smooth opaque black iridescent glass, the other in textured clear iridescent glass. The first of a series of three works using two types of completely different iridescent glass.They were first shown at the 2016 Sandringham Flower Show where I used the same glass in sculptures for a show garden. It is wall mounted on four chrome wall fixings. These will be included together with a template showing where to make the holes in the wall and screws. Alternatively if the buyer prefers I could solder loops onto the back behind two black opaque segments so that it could be hung on just a hook. It could be mounted inside or outside because it has been made with traditional leaded stained glass techniques and is therefore weatherproof. It is far from a piece of traditional stained glass however, because it is designed to look at rather than through! Being highly reflective it changes appearance with just slight changes in light conditions and the angle of viewing. The clear glass picks up the colours from its surrounding. I've demonstrated this by taking pictures of it in different light conditions with different backgrounds. It looks at its best in any light conditions. All my stained glass art takes on a life of its own, that always needs checking and can never be ignored. It is 16inches (40cm) in diameter. The four wall mountings are 1 inch (2.5cm) diameter and are 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) long, holding the spiral 1inch from the wall.
