After shooting some of Kirsteens work digitally for publication I shot a couple of plates on glass to see how they would come out. These are quarter plate clear glass.

“This exhibition features a new body of work that is the culmination of a series of partnerships with makers working across a variety of media and has been influenced by the use of writing as a way of advancing the creative process. This has allowed Kirsteen to explore and combine processes such as using blown and cast glass in innovative ways, bringing together lamp-working, spot welding and digital technology.”<\/p>\n
