About the Maker:

Irene creates unique pieces of glass using the practices of traditional leading, “Tiffany”/copper-foil work, kiln-formed glass, hand engraving and painting, and stained glass in both unique exhibition pieces and studio collections combining modern techniques with traditional skills.

“My visual response to the world is through the diverse and exacting medium of glass. The detail and patterns in nature are to me as inspirational as the expanse of land and seascapes, as an avid beachcomber, I see authenticity and beauty in found objects. These “objets trouves” often become integral elements of my finished work.”
