The Artifex Gallery in Sutton Coldfield are now exhibiting her work.

She explains:

The aim of this project was firstly to have a bit of fun. To release art into “ the world” and see what would happen. If I introduced something new into the communal glass arena, being moved from one person to another, would it open peoples’ eyes to more of the everyday stuff around them? Would it make people giggle? Would I make the milkman paranoid at the graffiti, and would it get back to the dairy? I am now curious to see what will happen.

If you see one of my engraved bottles, (or have bought one on ebay!) I would love to hear from you.
