Jo Guile is a London-based visual artist working with installation, sculpture, and photography. A recent graduate of the Royal College of Art’s MA in Ceramics and Glass (2019–2024), she works with glass techniques—including blown, cast, and flame-worked glass—to break down and reform light in both site-specific and stand-alone works. Her practice explores the intersection of glass and digital technology, questioning how light, colour, and screens—both physical and natural—shape perception thereby revealing unseen perspectives and evoke moments that are lost, imagined, or elsewhere.

Recent exhibitions include Mirage (London Glassblowing Gallery, 2025), Spring Tide and BOUNDLESS (Mint Gallery, 2025–2024), and Glass Beginnings (International Festival of Glass, 2024). Guile’s work displayed Blowfish Gallery and was commended in the CGS Glass Sellers New Graduate Review (2024).
Her awards including the Charlotte Fraser Price Scholarship (RCA, 2023), a grant to attend Pilchuck Glass School (USA, 2023), and UCL’s CHE EDI Small Grant (2025). Guile has presented at the Society of Glass Technology Conference (2023) and UCL’s Colour and Poetry symposium (2022, 2025) and contributed to its associated publications, and currently works as a Sculpture Technician at the Slade School of Fine Art.
