About
Avis uses kilnformed glass as a painterly medium, embracing its versatility and unpredictability. Through layering, reusing fragments, and adding materials like metal and decals, she explores narrative and emotion. Her practice reflects on memory, transforming fragility and pain into strength, humor, and visual intimacy.
A white glass bird lies lifeless, its body split to reveal glossy, flesh-like intestines. The work contrasts fragility and viscosity through material manipulation and controlled firing processes.
