Mel and I are receiving an ample amount of help and support settling into our new home in Australia from friends and family. As part of these new "world headquarters", I have started to assemble a fabrication studio in the garage, begun a new body of work, and am about to be in a group show at Sabbia Gallery in Sydney later this month.

In the meantime, I have been helping an excellent Sydney based artist Warren Langley with a commission he is working on for an exposition in Shanghai. Warren is composing his large commission "Microscopia" at the Canberra Glassworks with his assistant Trent. They rolled into town with 80% of the project completed so that it will be ready to ship by early November. Below is a photo of Warren and Trent contemplating the piece and a couple shots of the textured glass components that I am helping with. I have also added a short news report about the piece.
