I have always been captivated by how glass moves and flows. For my last piece, I want to show people how feminine and fluent glass is. With a personal touch, the piece’s text and colouring are related to Endometriosis, which is a long-term condition I live with. The text is a poem I wrote about what living with Endometriosis is like. I wanted to raise awareness and start a conversation. If you are unsure what Endometriosis is read below.

Endometriosis is a disease in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus as far as the lungs. It can cause severe pain in the pelvis, bloating, excess menstrual bleeding, digestive distress, and can also affect a person’s fertility.
