BEN SEWELL

Glass Artist, NSW, Australia

My work engages with landscape and the intellect, investigating and articulating notions of the individual in the landscape. I reference elements within the environment using intuitive mark making, describing qualities that have an emotive resonance of the land.

In the first place I establish a solid foundation in the strength of the form. I build upon this as I develop the surface with graphic qualities. Either side of each piece is hand-worked to create a sense of unity among the various parts and to bring out the natural interplay of the surface and light as intrinsic virtues of glass.
