Water & glass installation

'Percer Voir' (to perceive - lit 'pierce to see') comprises 14 satin blown Murano glass crystal points each more than a metre long, floating on a 54 sq metre pond against a backdrop of Mount Wellington.

"The glass points spring out of earth and water. The natural light permeates the glass points giving them dynamism, shape and essence and as the light changes through the course of the day so too does the appearance of the points"

Morucchio was the first recipient of the Claudio Alcorso Foundation artist in residence programme at The University of Tasmania School of Art. The installation previously appeared in the Hobart Botanical Gardens as part of the 10 Days on the Island 2003 programme and on a grassy verge in a monastery in Reggio Emilia, near Venice.
