Alison Jardine's "Rockpool V" captures the mesmerising essence of coastal tide pools through masterful glasswork. Standing 27 cm tall with a width of 18 cm at its broadest point, this striking vessel features a vibrant cobalt blue interior that gleams with an almost luminous quality, contrasting beautifully with the textured exterior patterned with organic, vertical striations reminiscent of water-worn rock formations. The asymmetrical, tilted form of the piece creates a sense of movement and fluidity, evoking the dynamic nature of coastal environments where sea meets shore. Jardine demonstrates exceptional technical skill in achieving both the piece's dramatic colour saturation and the delicate balance between its smooth interior and textured exterior surfaces.

The Transformative Quality of Glass Art
When displayed, "Rockpool V" creates a captivating focal point that shifts throughout the day as light interacts with its translucent blue interior. Mounted on its simple black plinth, the piece appears to hover in space, enhancing its sense of lightness and fluidity. This work exemplifies contemporary Scottish glass art's connection to natural landscapes, translating the ephemeral beauty of coastal environments into permanent form. The piece invites viewers to peer inside its depths, much as one might gaze into an actual rockpool, creating moments of contemplation and discovery that change with viewing angle and lighting conditions.
