Beveridge works primarily in kiln-formed and surface-decorated glass. She frequently employs traditional printing techniques using the plasticity of glass to explore the recurring themes within her work: time, memory, absence and displacement. Aesthetically, she draws inspiration from architectural finishes and details, such as carved stonework or fragments of wallpaper.

New Artists and reviews
My sculptures – purely abstract at one time – now often refer to elements taken from the earth or the sea.
These are recomposed by my vision of them, and in turn are left open to the imagination of the viewer.
At once dynamic and fluid, yet fixed in a moment in time, they take on the shape and colour of memory.
In March 2020, (just before lockdown) I exhibited ‘Acts of Uncreation’ – six pieces, each representing an aspect of the damage done by human beings to the environment. The installation was part of an event called ‘Rebellion and Renewal’ considering faith, politics and environment. The pieces will go on to permanent display at the Chapel in Methodist Church House, London. I also have ‘Crown of Thorns’ on display at Wesley House, Cambridge. I’m currently working on a commission to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Methodist Women in Britain.
