In this exhibition, Gabrielle Adamik's glass sculptures bring the unexpected to the forefront with their bold pairings of materials. These gestural works sit on the precipice of stability and fragility as smooth, glistening glass springs out of heavily flocked, recycled timber bases. Whilst the fine glass fronds reach out and interact with the space around them, the bases act as counterweights that anchor and steady the works. The outcome is an unexpected interaction of two processes and outcomes, with Adamik nudging her materials into delicate yet supportive arrangements.
