'By the shadow of my hand'

This piece was made for the Dylan Thomas Glass Exhibition at Swansea's Waterfront Museum. The theme was "Harmony". I interpreted ‘Harmony’ in the Welsh sense of ‘Cynghanedd’, whereby harmony is embodied in poetic form. Contemplating life and death on this anniversary, I Incorporated lines from Thomas’s poem, ‘Fernhill’. The palette and lace are influenced by the décor and furnishings of The Boathouse. The winter branches are from the churchyard close to Thomas’s grave.
