Durham hand-cuts and embeds colored glass pieces into wooden slabs, arranged in rainbow formations.
She merges the two materials together using traditional stained-glass techniques, including fusing and slumping.
As well as using universal motifs, Durham explores the nature of humanity by embracing imperfections in her work.
For Durham, the relationship between light and glass is often more beautiful than the sculpture itself.
When sunlight hits her perfectly imperfect glass shapes, the piece illuminates in vibrant hues and casts colorful shadows.
The artist adds, Glass gives me this moment of magical transformation.
