Mollie Meager - new work
This contemporary glass work is in a private house in Totterdown. It's based on a waterfall and is attempting to create a calm feeling at the bottom to facilitate the owners' meditation practice. Mollie has used handmade glass from English Antique, which is then etched, enamelled, stained and engraved. The textural qualities are fantastic and her drawn explorations are an indication of the creative process that takes place before starting work with the glass. What do you think?

There were masses of mini-sketches working towards final window. I think Mollie keeps things very loose whilst she's working so that once she starts working with the glass there is still room for development of her ideas.
I like the way she lets the processes & materials direct her to the end reult. I like the way it isn't too fixed. Think it makes it very free & fresh.. Working with the material rather than being rigid with it.
