Creating for a cause

As artists we are often invited to create for a cause, to donate a piece for auction. If I am being honest I am pretty selective about when I agree to this. It's not that I don't want to support, I love that I have that ability when I do. But it has to be acknowledged that it costs artists not only time but actual money in resources.  I say this to be transparent, I am asked to donate on average once a week across a years calendar I am not quiet there yet with that kind of disposable income. (one day hopefully). 
But this one intrigued me I mean glass turntables. The playfulness of the spinning art, the ability to really play with layers, peep holes and texture. And of course the challenge of working on glass, I would be lying if I said it was a walk in the park. 
Each piece was a collection of a moment, images of birds in colours representative of their environment, a deconstruction of reality. Exploring the idea of the fragments of experience that we have in a moment and what we take away. Was it a sound, smell or colour that permiated senses and ultimately what we take with us when we leave. 

Thank you Momentum Mental Health for inviting me to participate the project was fun and I hope that it has helped in some small way to support your much needed supports.
