Nubivagant

Adjective

(comparative more nubivagant, superlative most nubivagant)

1.     (rare) Wandering in the clouds; moving through the air.

Origin

From Latin nubes (“cloud”) + vagant- (“wandering”).

The Nubivagant collection is a series of sculptures inspired by beautiful skies and lucid dreams. Soft colours are translated into delicate discs of pâte-de-verre (glass paste) then allowed to gently fold in the kiln, resulting in vessels that hold the serenity of the natural world. A sense of wonder and expression of non-linear time is captured in the undulating forms and raised intaglio linework.

First created during the Imagining Sustainable Glass Networks Europe (ISGNE) residency at Northlands Glass in the Scottish Highlands.
