From her Fragile Form Series, a beautifully sculpted piece by Mari Thomas for Collect 2025. 

The sculpture evokes the fragile pages of an ancient book, words in Welsh and English hand carved into its surface to reflect the lasting impact and power of language, the wisdom of ages held within the ‘pages' - the written word being the last to decay and die. 

The hand carved lettering in this beautiful sister piece to Fragile Form Sculpture No#1 captures the signature motifs within the Fragile Form Collection. 

Created for Collect 2025, the sculpture evokes a sense of decay and fragility as seen in the pages of an ancient book - the words and language, the wisdom they hold, remaining when all else has withered and gone, the sculpted form reminiscent of a turning page.   

Duo Dodecade is created from two constructs made up of twelve sides joined to form a whole. At its intersection a deep geometric 'crevasse' is created.

Available for sale or commission.

A pair of vessels using a 'cubic' curve each the mirror of itself but contrasting in colour: one, an oxidised surface showing a rich, velvet black. The other a soft white exterior.

Available for sale or commission as a pair or individually: the price shown is for an individual piece.

Responding to our curatorial theme for Collect 2025 -  'Black &Gold' - Mary Ann developed these tall faceted 'pinstripe' forms to take advantage of the dramatic contrast of gold accents against a black background. 

Typical of her 'box' form designs, these multifaceted forms can be purchased individually or as a group as shown below. 

With this piece I took the two dimensional flat sheet and, using clean lines, facets, precision and containment as my inspiration, turned it into a three dimensional vessel.

This piece by Mary Ann Simmons is typical of her experimentation with the simple box form to create unique and original silver works. 

Responding to our curatorial theme for Collect 2025 -  'Black &Gold' - she developed these tall faceted 'pinstripe' forms to take advantage of the dramatic of contrast of gold accents against a black background. 

Shown here individually and in a group, Pinstripe Vessel (2) is one of a series of works that can be purchased seperately or as a triptych as shown below.   

Simmons' response to our curatorial theme of ‘Black and Gold’ was to create this unusual collection of ‘pinstripe’ forms using the dramatic contrast of gold accents against a black background to accentuate the edge to each individual face. 

Simmons uses the box form to create her exceptional silver work which has evolved from cubes to an exploration of symmetric and asymmetric, multifaceted forms. 

These pinstripe vessels created for Collect are a perfect example of this exploration and can be purchased individually or separately.
