New take on a broken plate

When I was first learning fused glass we made broken plates. You take a hammer and break a pieces of glass up and then arrange them on another piece of glass and fuse (bottom two images). I decided to do something different than your traditional broken plate and make some purposeful, semi-random cuts in a piece of swirled glass. I then plated them on a larger piece of glass and tack fused it. I then spread some medium frit in the empty spaces and did a little longer of a tack fuse. Next I slumped it in a gentlly sloped plate mold. I really like the flow of the swirls offset by the straight lines and texture of the frit.
