There is a Home in Everything & There is a Home in You - Harvest mice (Micromys minutus) are resting in a cored apple (Malus pumila) with a small snail (Gastropoda)travelling along the edge

Flameworked borosilicate glass.

Harvest mice (Micromys minutus) are resting in a cored apple (Malus pumila) with a small snail (Gastropoda)travelling along the edge.

The artist's life is often one of precarity, chasing the next opportunity and adapting to new circumstances, no matter how challenging they may be. I was inspired by the way harvest mice shelter out of flowers and fruit, like feasting on apples to carve out their own dwellings. I felt it paralleled my partner and I moving in together for the first time, and the comfort you create in the great unknown.
