I'm an emerging Glass artist based in the South West. I create blown glass forms with web like metal inclusions designed to draw your gaze in to the form.

To produce the mesh inclusions I utilize hand Crochet and knitting techniques that were passed on through the women in my family from generation to generation. I liked the uniformity that I was initially creating with the simple stitch patterns, but as my work and skills have progressed the patterns have become increasingly complex and the objects appear more organic.

The textile element is integral to my work, the glass and knitted wire work together in harmony, complimenting and emphasizing each other’s qualities. The two materials say a lot about fragility and strength, not only physically but also metaphorically.
