Glaziers Bowl

380mm diameter x 80mm

A ceremonial bowl commissioned by the Worshipful Company of Glaziers which they acquired to give in lieu of rent. The Glaziers’ influence is depicted and the design reads as a narrative of my career since my Stevens Competition win.

580mm diameter x 120mm

This piece came from a residency set up by the Alexandra Reinhardt Memorial Award and was based on one of the aphasic patients I met. Her stroke had affected her speech so that even simple sentences were impossible for her to complete.
