Meet Monette Larsen
Monette Larsen's glass artwork examines the concept of natural beauty, expressing the idea that our perception of nature's attractiveness links to an innate recognition of its underlying patterns and structures. She looks to molecular structures, nanoscale details, and natural mathematics as foundations.
With a glass art degree from Denmark's Royal Academy and an MA from London's RCA, Larsen has exhibited internationally, holding works in permanent collections worldwide. Her art celebrates nature's complex beauty through structural investigations.

The making process of refining, altering, cutting, and carving mimics nature's forces impacting theoretically perfect models
