Overview

With her family of works Messengers in Glass, Camilla Moberg was inspired by the formation of natural stone, as well as the colors of insects and birds. Throughout history and across different cultures, stone formation often symbolizes a sense of unity, as well as a connection between humans and nature. Camilla Moberg is deeply connected to nature and she uses her work to open a dialogue on the defense of biodiversity. The various glass elements of her sculptures contain detailed designs, which draw inspiration from the patterns and colors found primarily on insects and birds. By transposing and enlarging these patterns into abstract glass formations, Moberg reveals their otherworldly beauty and draws attention to endangered animal populations.
