Echinus

Inspired by the beauty of nature, Echinus transforms blown glass into a tactile homage to sea urchin shells. Huskie explores how no two shells are the same, translating their delicate, intricate patterns into glass with painstaking care. Each strand is applied individually, shaped, and refined, creating a surface that invites touch while retaining the fragility of the medium. Echinus is a celebration of texture, movement, and the harmony between art and nature.

Cassito

Cassito reimagines the boundaries of glass art, blending craftsmanship with curiosity. Traditionally, Huskie applies texture to the exterior of blown glass, but here she turns perception inside out, embedding intricate textures within the vessel itself. This hidden pattern reveals itself only when you look within, drawing viewers closer. As light plays across its surface, an undulating depth emerges, a secret waiting to be discovered.
