Amanda’s commitment to glass as a sculptural medium has developed beyond making objects, to using components to build up images and develop ideas.

Using traditional glass making techniques she creates unique hand blown sculptural forms, often enhancing her sleek, free blown pieces using skilful cold working processes such as cutting, carving and polishing to create surface patterns and textures, which hold light and magnify reflections.

Initially inspired by microscopic images of plankton, her work is now evolutionary, with each piece informing the next.
