Art Statement

CenterState CEO Business of the Year Award ( “Metamorphosis Flame”)  


This award is a celebration of transformation, growth, and the power of positive change.  The fused glass form—crafted with a unique layering of textured powders—evokes the essence of metamorphosis. Each subtle gradient of blue, gold, and earth tones reflects a journey: from
aspiration to achievement, from commitment to community impact.

The central flame-inspired shape symbolizes the inner spark that fuels innovation and leadership. The texture within the glass adds depth and life, offering new details at every angle—much like the evolving story of the honoree’s success.

Handcrafted with precision and purpose, this piece honors those who inspire progress not just through business excellence, but through their deep-rooted involvement in shaping a stronger, more vibrant community.
