DescriptionSpherical glass vessel with a flat top. The vessel is composed of two layers of hot-blown clear glass, one fused inside of the other. A black-and-white gel photograph of the coastline of Byron Bay has been applied to the surface of the inner, or “bubble,” layer. The outer layer reflects the photograph so that the image appears to extend off the inner bubble, creating one cohesive interior environment.
