Punctured

Open Cast Lead Crystal.

Description:

Punctured is a poignant exploration of the profound emotions surrounding the death of Lianne’s father, manifested through the medium of lead crystal. The intentional use of this specific material plays a crucial role in conveying the depth and complexity of her emotional journey.

The textured side represents the raw and tumultuous emotions that accompany loss, echoing the guttural feelings that surge during the aftermath of death. The rough, uneven surface symbolizes the jagged edges of grief, portraying the profound impact of this life-altering event.

The highly polished surface reflects the process of healing and introspection that follows. The smooth, pristine finish represents the gradual acceptance of the void left behind and the optical effect created symbolises the transformative nature of grief.

Punctured invites the viewer to engage with the emotional layers embedded in the artwork, encouraging contemplation on the universal theme of loss and the transformative power of time in the healing journey.
