February Featured artists 2015




Artist: Mia Kolpin
Title: Vessels, Urchins, Eruptions, Unworldly
Medium: Hand blown glass
Venue: 27 Deakin Cafe 


This body of work came from an amazing demonstration where glass was manipulated in the hot shop beginning as a vessel. A section of the vessel was heated and the glass was blown to cause a ‘blow out’ effect. Such amazing fun and the unpredictability of what the end result would be was both terrifying and captivating.

Medium: Drawing/Installation
Venue: Premier Art Supplies
