I am interested in using manufactured abstraction in glass casting. To do this I intend to transfer 2D photographic images of the landscape into 3D glass form, using innovative 3D print technology as an integral part of the design process. This process has the potential to create highly detailed moulds which could not be made by hand and would allow me to explore a whole new approach in casting.

My current practice involves working with Bullseye frit and powder to create Pate de Verre* sculptural forms.

I wish to accomplish a marriage between traditional casting, abstraction and digital modelling techniques.
