GLOW is a work made solely using digital tools. It is a work of jewelry, designed collaboratively with a traditional trained and working silver smith, Silvia Weidenbach. At the time of the collaboration, she had previously only been working with traditional tools and materials of the trade. The project GLOW, a commission by the Sir John Soane's museum, contains no silver, no gemstones, or gold in the project.
The project is best reflected in the words of Richard Sennett who states, "Every good Craftsman conducts a Dialogue between concrete practices and thinking, this Dialogue evolves into sustaining habits, and these habits establish a rhythm between problem-solving and problem finding." As Sennett states or the lack thereof, the craft can exist without initial material feedback between the craftsman's hand and the materials such as clay, wood, metal, or gemstone setting. Instead, it is a dialogue of practice and thinking.
