Glass Cola Bottle Sculpture © Simon Lewis Wards
No, it’s not AI generated, but it’s also not a beloved Cola Bottle. It’s a wonderful glass piece, handcrafted by artist Simon Lewis Wards.
He makes beautiful sweet treats out of glass and porcelain that conjure feelings of nostalgia as much as hunger.
I feel that at the breakneck speed that generative AI is developing, the touch of the human hand, the craft of the maker and the vision of the artist are increasingly valued and thus, valuable.
And, thankfully, it’s not just me, this chimed with an awful lot of people on LinkedIn, and led to some real-life sales for the artist!
