Emily Siddell, 'Medium shell lei', 2011

As a teenager growing up in Auckland Emily Siddell was inspired by the Pacific cultures around her rather than the art traditions of Europe. This is reflected in her glasswork. As well as lei (strung objects worn around the neck), Siddell creates kete (woven bags) from glass.
