Description
Celia Dowson’s 'Water Bowl in Clear Mist' is a rounded, frosted piece, a tribute to the purity and simplicity of water itself. It exudes an ethereal aura reminiscent of water in its purest form. The smooth, fluid shape and form of the glass evokes the gentle ebb and flow of water. Crafted with meticulous precision, it holds the essence of liquid elegance, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the tranquillity of water. The dominant hues of misty white echo the vastness of waves and the depth of icy rivers, providing a visual voyage. As light caresses its surfaces, the glass droplets suspended within the bowl radiate, akin to the way water shimmers and glistens under the kiss of the sun.
This sublime 'Water Bowl in Clear Mist' is a testament to Dowson’s mastery in capturing the essence of water. Each piece is a liquid dream, allowing us to savour the beauty of water’s ever-changing form, from the vast ocean to small streams, all held within the tactile embrace of glass.
