Current Exhibition
GLASS NOW – Launched on the 17th January 2022
GLASS NOW launched on the 17th January 2022, is the first online exhibition for 2022 and is part of the launch of the Contemporary Glass Society’s 25th anniversary celebrations.
The 50 Contemporary Glass Society artists featured in GLASS NOW are the personal choice of CGS Trustee Nicola Schellander together with Linda Banks, the Editor of Glass Networks Digital.
We wanted to feature artists whose work has fascinated and inspired us and who we feel make a statement about glass today; this is why we have invited these artists to take part.
We have not been able to include all members, as CGS has over 1000 artists! But we have put together a selection that we hope provides you with a representative overview of the techniques, variety of inspiration and excellence in the medium of glass.
Alongside this, we also wished to give you an overview of our worldwide reach as an organisation with a selection of international artists we are lucky to have in CGS as well as U.K. based.
Although all our CGS Trustees are practicing artists themselves, we have left them out of this show, to give you a more universal spectrum of CGS Member Glass Artists.
We hope that this exhibition will inspire you!
Launched on:17th January 2022

Hot glass is his visual language and he looks to place innovative ideas with the material in different public arenas. It is this methodology of allowing his ideas to flow freely and expansively, which enables him to realise works of such aesthetic, technical and material diversity. He lives and works in London where he shares a studio with two other artists.

Title:Reversion Vessel 04-16
My most recent body of work is a celebration of life and death. The process I have developed to make these objects is a process of destruction and re-creation. It creates a constant motion frozen in time. The process enables me to influence the balance of light, colours and contrast within the objects. This ‘Reversion’ process creates a unique set of characteristics in each object.

Title:Synchronous
For many years now I have been fascinated by Kinesics, or the study of Body Language by which humans unconsciously transmit and receive non-verbal communication. Human interaction, interplay and movement are at the core of this work, derived from reality, performance and the infinite nuisances between those two states. Often the face we show to the outside world is a mask but the language of the body frequently tells another story and our true nature is often revealed in ways we cannot control. To reinforce the contemporaneous nature of this, Synchronous is composed of two distinct materials, glass and 24 carat gold. However the gold coating is an optical coating, no thicker than 1/4 wave of yellow light and this creates the visual illusion of a chimera. At once both transparent and opaque, both glass and metal.

Title:Hong Kong Dreaming
She was awarded an MBE for services to glass engraving in 2009.
Two themes have long interested her – the illusion of a smaller vessel apparently suspended inside a larger one, the effect of both reflection and refraction of an engraved outer surface onto the inside surface of a thick walled clear glass vessel; also the sculptural beauty of simple natural objects, particularly the humble ones found in everyday life. Katharine is greatly influenced by the rigour and refinement of Japanese design and Japanese respect for natural, ordinary objects as aesthetically pleasing.Katharine’s work requires close collaboration with glassblowers Potter Morgan Glass. She engraves on clear lead crystal forms, which have been overlaid with a thin layer of coloured glass, blown to her design.The reflection of the engraving on the outside of the vessel is seen as a miniature inner vessel, although there is nothing but clear glass there. The optical properties of glass fascinate her and provide a rich world for the artist.
The Chinese dragon has lost the pearl of wisdom from his mouth and is out of control as he flies over the apartment blocks and boatfuls of people crowing into the island.

Title:WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME
His work expresses an attempt to research and expose certain aspects of philosophical and socio-political issues. He draws inspiration from current and past events that trigger his need to express his views or raise questions that may lead to creative conversations. He views his work as a celebration of life; finding beauty in the world by revealing its inadequacies.
Hence, he chooses to use glass as a protagonist within large; often mixed media installations, that create an emotional experience which aims to stimulate critical thinking.
This installation is an attempt to explore and expose the topic of gun violence, in the aftermath of mass shootings over the last few years.

Details: Cast Glass AR-15 rifle, Glass canes, plywood. Installation, 2m x 5m. He primarily uses cast and hot glass techniques to create sculptural work, as a way of effectively communicating the topics he explores.

"The Power of Play" is made up of sculptures inspired by mojigangas — giant puppets used in celebrations or cultural festivities in Polak’s native Mexico.
My current body of work, "The Power of Play, "arises from these Mojigangas. The interchangeable accessories of my glass puppets offer an opportunity to interact and play depending on whim. I invite one to abandon the constraints and boundaries we face today while activating a sense of play, which leads to spontaneity and delight.

Title:MEMORIES I
Combining hand glassblowing and hand painting (high firing enamels) skills to create one-off pieces of art glass. Private commissions are what interest me as I am quite fond of telling a story that is capable of capturing memories and moments in time. Functional/sculptural, figurative/representational/abstract – more often than not infused with elements of humour.

Title:Vessel line up
Ideas are developed over periods of time, usually resulting in a range of related pieces, which have grown out of an initial concept. Potential shapes and forms are explored through charcoal drawings on paper, and questions about volume, scale, colour and how the piece may respond to light are considered at this stage. The character/atmosphere of the piece is then established through modelmaking, usually in clay or plaster, before the process of translating into glass begins.

The 'Precious integrations' series is a celebration of the 'high altar' of femininity and of the ritual beautification that forms the essence of the dressing table. This series is a continuation of Saras' intrigue into the hidden and precious elements of jewellery, "why do we hide away what we perceive to be our most treasured possessions".
Taking inspiration from the glass dressing table sets of the 1920's, Sara bestows a contemporary take on them by integrating hidden elements of jewellery such as rings, necklaces and bangles within each of her sets.

Title:Reversion Vessel 04-16
My most recent body of work is a celebration of life and death. The process I have developed to make these objects is a process of destruction and re-creation. It creates a constant motion frozen in time. The process enables me to influence the balance of light, colours and contrast within the objects. This ‘Reversion’ process creates a unique set of characteristics in each object.

Amanda enhances her sleek free blown pieces using skilful cold working processes such as cutting, carving and polishing to create surface patterns and textures, which hold light and magnify reflections.
Initially inspired by microscopic images of plankton, her work is now evolutionary, with each piece informing the next.

Title:Synchronous
For many years now I have been fascinated by Kinesics, or the study of Body Language by which humans unconsciously transmit and receive non-verbal communication. Human interaction, interplay and movement are at the core of this work, derived from reality, performance and the infinite nuisances between those two states. Often the face we show to the outside world is a mask but the language of the body frequently tells another story and our true nature is often revealed in ways we cannot control. To reinforce the contemporaneous nature of this, Synchronous is composed of two distinct materials, glass and 24 carat gold. However the gold coating is an optical coating, no thicker than 1/4 wave of yellow light and this creates the visual illusion of a chimera. At once both transparent and opaque, both glass and metal.

Title:Hong Kong Dreaming
She was awarded an MBE for services to glass engraving in 2009.
Two themes have long interested her – the illusion of a smaller vessel apparently suspended inside a larger one, the effect of both reflection and refraction of an engraved outer surface onto the inside surface of a thick walled clear glass vessel; also the sculptural beauty of simple natural objects, particularly the humble ones found in everyday life. Katharine is greatly influenced by the rigour and refinement of Japanese design and Japanese respect for natural, ordinary objects as aesthetically pleasing.Katharine’s work requires close collaboration with glassblowers Potter Morgan Glass. She engraves on clear lead crystal forms, which have been overlaid with a thin layer of coloured glass, blown to her design.The reflection of the engraving on the outside of the vessel is seen as a miniature inner vessel, although there is nothing but clear glass there. The optical properties of glass fascinate her and provide a rich world for the artist.
The Chinese dragon has lost the pearl of wisdom from his mouth and is out of control as he flies over the apartment blocks and boatfuls of people crowing into the island.

Title:WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME
His work expresses an attempt to research and expose certain aspects of philosophical and socio-political issues. He draws inspiration from current and past events that trigger his need to express his views or raise questions that may lead to creative conversations. He views his work as a celebration of life; finding beauty in the world by revealing its inadequacies.
Hence, he chooses to use glass as a protagonist within large; often mixed media installations, that create an emotional experience which aims to stimulate critical thinking.
This installation is an attempt to explore and expose the topic of gun violence, in the aftermath of mass shootings over the last few years.

"The Power of Play" is made up of sculptures inspired by mojigangas — giant puppets used in celebrations or cultural festivities in Polak’s native Mexico.
My current body of work, "The Power of Play, "arises from these Mojigangas. The interchangeable accessories of my glass puppets offer an opportunity to interact and play depending on whim. I invite one to abandon the constraints and boundaries we face today while activating a sense of play, which leads to spontaneity and delight.

Combining hand glassblowing and hand painting (high firing enamels) skills to create one-off pieces of art glass. Private commissions are what interest me as I am quite fond of telling a story that is capable of capturing memories and moments in time. Functional/sculptural, figurative/representational/abstract – more often than not infused with elements of humour.

Title:Vessel line up
Ideas are developed over periods of time, usually resulting in a range of related pieces, which have grown out of an initial concept. Potential shapes and forms are explored through charcoal drawings on paper, and questions about volume, scale, colour and how the piece may respond to light are considered at this stage. The character/atmosphere of the piece is then established through modelmaking, usually in clay or plaster, before the process of translating into glass begins.

The 'Precious integrations' series is a celebration of the 'high altar' of femininity and of the ritual beautification that forms the essence of the dressing table. This series is a continuation of Saras' intrigue into the hidden and precious elements of jewellery, "why do we hide away what we perceive to be our most treasured possessions".
Taking inspiration from the glass dressing table sets of the 1920's, Sara bestows a contemporary take on them by integrating hidden elements of jewellery such as rings, necklaces and bangles within each of her sets.
