Glass

Kristin's artwork combines glass, printed media, silver leaf and botanical specimens. 

Her artworks explore the concept of 'fragile strength' through multi-layered kiln-formed glass works with mixed-media inclusions. Kristin enjoys using delicate materials to create multi-layered works with complex interiors through kiln-formed glass. Her studio is a treasure trove of glass test tiles, botanical specimens and visual diaries. She is exploring working with antique artefacts and combining them with modern elements.

"I enjoy the process of taking something fleeting and turning it into an object with integrity and permanence. This interest stems from my background as a graphic designer and working with glass has presented me with new opportunities to work with graphic elements in three dimensions."

— Kristin McFarlane
