My glass work comes in many forms, all reached in trying to resolve questions and elucidate curiosities I see within glass and its light-channelling properties.
Using handcut stencils, sandblasting and painting along with layering, I create optical illusions and this is about the space within the glass. When seen from different angles, chinks of light break through the glass creating a kind of kinetic interference pattern that brings the piece to life. Much of my work pursues my passion for repetitive pattern and rhythm, balance and movement. I work in series, striving to show the spaces in between and within the glass, bending expectation and understanding.
"Art is a game only if you play at it, a mirror that reflects from the inside". Dannie Abse.
My main techniques are kiln-forming, hand-cut stencils, sandblast, painting, printing, gilding and using found objects, I like the external uncontrolled inspiration that this produces.
