Exhibit
Brian is recognised as one of the foremost glass artists of Australia, having significant pieces in private and public collections, nationally and internationally.
The New Gold Series are made from 23crt gold sheets from Kanazawa in Japan.
They are the largest and most expensive gold leaf available. They are rolled onto the hot glass surface when the glass is hot and blown up into the large steam bubble forms. The steam bubble technique was used extensively in the 1950 in Finland and later in the early studio glass movement. They are blown by Brian and his team of glass blowers in Canberra and finished in Sydney.
