“Light and Dark” -launched on 6th January 2025

Day and night, black and white, bold contrasts made by shadows in stark sunlight – all are examples of light and dark. Darkness, is the direct opposite of lightness, is defined as a lack of illumination, an absence of visible light, or a surface that absorbs light, such as black. It is estimated that 99% of our universe is hidden in the dark – and as light travels at a finite speed, the further you look into the universe the further one looks back in time.

The CGS invited glass artists to show us their contrasts, extremes, even their explorations into space – to boldly go where no one has gone before.

 

We are so thrilled to launch this show as the first show of 2025. And a huge thank you to all those artists that joined the show to take part!

It is one of the most exciting shows we have had yet!

59 CGS artists are taking part in the show!

If you have any questions about the exhibition, taking part, or need any technical help, please email us at info@cgs.org.uk

Title:Stricken

Description: Titled after the intense emotional state of the central figure; there are many reasons why we may feel stricken. Internal and external struggles can sometimes be overwhelming, I wanted to capture the weight and isolation of these experiences by attempting to paint the emotional energy of the figure. It’s important for me to create paintings that relate to each part of our psyche, to encourage self-understanding and deeper thinking. I hoped that others would find consolation in this painting.
