About the Item
Slivers of cool white glass frit create layers, stacked in squares and formed into a dynamic crescent by sculptor Cheryl Wilson Smith. This wall sculpture evokes fragility through its material and yet strength in its subject of moving ice.
Wilson-Smith has lived in northern Ontario for many years on the granite and gold of the Canadian Shield and surrounded by the imposing Boreal Forest. Her glass works reflects her experience of this environment -- the simultaneous fragility and strength of man and the natural world. She was the 2014 winner of the RBC Award for Glass through the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery that published a description of her work: “Wilson-Smith’s delicate and complex kiln-cast works are inspired by the Boreal Forest and rock shores of Red Lake where she lives. Created by translating drawings into countless individual layers of glass frit, her sculptures push the limits of glass while interpreting the northern Ontario light, landscape and wilderness.”
Wilson-Smith has received nine grants from the Ontario Arts Council and one from the Canada Council. Commissions include the Red Lake District Heritage Centre, Margaret Cochenor Memorial Hospital Donor wall. Her work has been exhibited widely across Canada, in the UK and the US.
