Vitreous Entities
Animals and wildlife around the world are being placed under significant threat every year. Deforestation, climate change and the exploitation of species through illegal wildlife trade are just a few of the challenges which are continually presented to the planets most vulnerable species. But these challenges also pose a high risk to the long-term survival of the human race, we need to make a change before it is too late.
Designed to bring tribute to these very animals ‘Vitreous Entities’ is a collection of enamelled wall hanging pieces, which have been created with the intention of capturing the subjects’ true magnificence. Each piece features a unique, illustrated design which has been fired onto the surface of copper discs and hung onto a satin ribbon, allowing them to be mounted perfectly onto the wall. Enamel is a wonderful medium which reacts with the metal oxides and forms a range of beautiful colours, this variation in colour means no two pieces are exactly the same.
The motivation behind this collection has always been to make a change and as a result 5% of all sales will be donated to WWF – World Wide Fund for Nature, a fantastic charity with a mission to “create a world where people and wildlife can thrive together.”
