My passion is blown glass formed by hand into vessels or flat panels. My work is richly decorated, bordering on Baroque. I seek to capture the sensual element in glass with shimmering surfaces, though also promoting a dark and mystical aspect by using traditional silvering techniques. Nature is constantly present buts its beauty is threatened.
Glass is transparent. But glass also has a capacity for storing light and reflecting it back to us. Cased glass, in which a coloured bolt is covered in molten clear crystal, displays this to a unique extent. The cylindrical vessels, shown here in a wide variety of colours, capture something of the sensual element of glass with their shimmering surfaces.
