I have been thinking about the weighted glass and how it will float on water, and it made me wonder if I could get any inspiration from old fishing floats. Maybe this could be in the form or the way it is weighted. I’m looking forward to seeing how the blown glass diatom forms will react when placed into the water. Will be capture the air within a section of the glass? Will the glass be thicker in one part to create balance or off-balance? Will the glass extend under water to create balance and again, be a hidden element of the final concept.
