An Ode to Mother Nature is a collection of cast glass flowers embedded in mountainous forms. Influenced by the symbolism of Old Europe, where they believed in an earth goddess,  Bella has used the flower as a symbol of femininity and divinity. 

These cast glass and brass flowers growing out of imperfect and organic polystyrene forms, are a comment on modernism, where the control of nature is seen as progress.

Works exhibited at Elam Grad Show 2022 and Waiheke Art Gallery in October 2022.
