X Ray: Exposure 1, Kilnformed and assembled glass, 25cm h x 13cm w x 15cm d, 2011
This week "Alphabet!" (curated by Mel George) opened at CraftACT here in Canberra. For this show, twenty six artists who use glass were assigned a letter and asked to make a piece that reflected themselves and the letter. I was given the letter "X". The image above is my resulting piece called "X Ray: Exposure 1" (25cm h x 13cm w x 15cm d).
My aim for this "X Ray" was to make a piece that looks at revealing an everyday man's internal view of himself. I ask that if you are in Canberra to check out the other impressive letters/artists in this show.
Unfortunately for the lovers of individual letters, I have been told that the entire show has been purchased by Canberra Museum and Gallery!! This is fantastic news for the artists, the work, the comprehensiveness of letterkind and first time curator Mel George!
