MEET SIJU GLASS

I am passionate about glass. I make kiln formed glass inspired from childhood memories, my experiences as a subsea engineer and scuba diver, and my surroundings in the hills. I use a range of techniques that I’ve learnt and developed, often making use of the fluidity of the glass when it is hot to give my work a painterly feel. I find great joy in making glass pieces. I can loose myself in designing and assmbling the glass to go into the kiln. Then the excitement of opening it when the firing is finshed, to see how the heat has transformed the glass - often beyond expectations, and sometimes catastrophic – but always fueling more inspiration.
