Even more so during times of social distancing, Lisabeth Sterling’s cameo carved glass vessel White Light from the Void evokes a sense of the important role interpersonal relationships play in regards human to human wellness. “The stuff of human relationships – man to woman, child to parent, young to old, human to animal, the individual to the group – seem to be close to Sterling’s heart, and the various small pleasures and endemic frustrations of them get played out across these surfaces.” – James Yood (1952-2018)
