The design is based on the "incalmo" process, where a vessel is constructed by fusing two or more pieces while they are hot. Platter was constructed from four separate pieces and sequentially fused together to make the form that was shaped and spun into a platter. Two of the elements also contain canework.
Dr. Belinda Thompson is local to the Finger Lakes Region, residing in Ithaca, NY. She developed her love for glass work and design while serving as an Assistant Clinical Professor with the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine and Director of Veterinary Support Services in the Animal Health Diagnostic Center.

North Dakota State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory |
Our immune systems have specialized cells called "killer T cells" which are able to recognize and destroy virus-infected and cancerous cells. Alex Ritter is an immunologist and glass worker who studies these specialized immune cells. In the lab, Alex's work focuses on using advanced light microscopes to capture dynamic videos of killer T cells engaging and destroying cancer. He uses these videos to learn the secrets of how many cancer cells evade detection and destruction by the immune system. In the studio, Alex models the 3-dimensional T cells and cancer cells he studies using hot sculpted glass. When T cells recognize cancer, they engage the cancer cell in a sort of "hug" before secreting toxic proteins which eliminate the threat. That first moment of cancer cell recognition is captured in this piece inspired by a killer T cell engaging a lymphoma cancer cell.
Alex was born and raised in Williston, North Dakota. He received his undergraduate degrees at Concordia College in Moorhead, MN before pursuing a PhD at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. Find more of Alex’s work on Instagram @cells_invitro
Size: It is 3” wide by 4” tall
The photo shown is the inspiration for the piece.
