Gleichenia presents the new INWATER and WATER SCENERY collections at TOYA in Mejiro, Tokyo.
The INWATER collection captures underwater scenery within pate de verre glass — shimmer inside transparency, achieved through the deliberate embrace of devitrification. Each piece explores the boundary between clarity and opacity, creating a texture like being submerged in water. This exploration of glass's "imperfect" states connects to the Japanese concept of もののあわれ (mono no aware) — finding beauty in transformation.
