These fractures are portals to moments of instability and an exploration of the wounded body as a vessel for transformation and the queer body as a site for recreation. Interrogating the disciplines associated with each material, the work has undergone a careful process of deconstruction and reconstruction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"TextRun SCXW227223271 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-AU\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW227223271 BCX0\"\u003eBronwyn’s work challenges notions of beauty often associated with glass. Although including playful elements of colour and form, her work tackles the jarring and often necessary medical procedures required for a chronically ill body. Driven by ongoing material investigation, her practice led research incorporates multiple studio glass processes, often in unconventional ways.

She creates ambivalence between the graceful material of glass and harsh interferences into the surface. Her practice seeks to realise the potential for transformation in these moments of pain. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.4em;\"\u003e—\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blown glass with silica, bicarbonate and ceramic inclusions, ceramic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e  35 x 35 x 25cm variable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bronwyn Sargeson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47806310613210,"sku":"G-BS001","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0033\/5002\/files\/336_Craft_Felled_Product_2026_C_ARMSTRONG.jpg?v=1781246701","url":"https:\/\/shop.craft.org.au\/products\/bron-sargeson-chartreuse-deuce-2025","provider":"SHOP@Craft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
