Glass Projects

During the United Nations International Year of Glass, UNSW Galleries celebrate some of Australia’s most fascinating practitioners working with glass in a series of solo exhibitions that facilitate exchanges between space, history, and architecture.

Consuelo Cavaniglia presents a new body of work featuring handmade sheet glass; Liam Fleming, a glassblower, artist and designer whose new body of work experiments with coldworking techniques; Mel Douglas explores the potential and flexibility of glass as a material for drawing and Louis Grant who pushes the boundaries of glass making and contemporary sculpture, as an abstract exploration of queer experience.

Join the practitioners for a panel discussion moderated by Aimee Frodsham, Artistic Director of Canberra Glassworks, at 2pm Saturday 15 October 2022. This program will be followed by opening celebrations from 3–5pm.

This event is part of the Sydney Craft Week Festival 7-16 October 2022.

SCW is an Australian Design Centre initiative. View the complete festival program.
