“Grow” consists of two components. In one corner of the installation a video projection depicts a molten landscape, a garden of glowing material. At various moments within the video loop, glass vessels and vases inexplicably grow, just as a flower blooms, or a blade of grass thrusts upward through a mound of dirt; pitchers, cups, mugs, and wine glasses mature and are plucked from a glowing plot of soil.
Opposite the video, situated in the center of the room, a glowing chamber houses a crucible of molten glass. The electric kiln is outfitted with a clear quartz lid allowing the viewer to witness the elements flicker on and off supplying the energy necessary to maintain a liquid consistency. This unit is a green house, an incubator, a nursery of sorts from which the molten material is transformed into useful and pragmatic objects depicted within the video. (2012)
