Roberta Mason

Bubbling Away (2024)

UK-based artist Roberta Mason explores humanity's fundamental interconnection with the ocean, using sculpture to advocate for the protection and restoration of the planet. The artist combines high-heat glassmaking with radical sustainability and repurposed materials, creating a practice that addresses environmental fragility. Mason’s work invites a revaluation of our profound bond with the sea and the life that inhabits it. In Bubbling Away, inspired by bubble coral, she uses repurposed glass and mirror. The distorted reflections confront viewers with their presence in a diminished natural world, provoking reflection on collective choices and their impact on living systems.
