New Artists and reviews
My most recent project is our studio move to a historical building within the Red House Glass cone. I will be transforming artist representation from being predominantly online to a being shown in physical gallery too. Blowfish gallery plans to run events and exhibitions alongside a hot glass blowing studio in which myself Bethany Wood and my partner Elliot Walker will be producing contemporary glass art and sculpture
Fused glass functional pieces sold at craft markets in the UK and France.
My most recent Market was in Wells Christmas Market.

On the one hand, this project is about how we can rethink the process of
reducing the amount of waste. On the other hand, about how to transform
the original waste glass, how we can make this changed, new material
visible. To explore how beautiful and surprising surfaces and textures can
be created from them, in artistic works, design products and architectural
elements. In my planning, my goal is to create a design in which I tried to
take the aspects of sustainable development into account, and in order to
protect the ecology, I preferred planning for the entire production cycle.
Vision:
Creating design products that not only decorate your home, but also use
waste during their production, which protects our planet from the
incineration of useless waste and the emission of carbon dioxide!
Mission:
Conscious selective collection of architectural glass waste and its secondary
life in valuable DESIGN products.
Base value:
Creation of handmade, sustainably designed contemporary industrial art,
design products, architectural elements from architectural glass waste.
Tara is heavily often inspired by iconic consumer items and recreates these in glass form primarily using the Tiffany method.
I’ve mainly been making useful decorative bowls and dishes in a variety of colours utilising reactive effects in glass derived from copper, sulphur and selenium.
