Hey!
It's been a while, a busy old summer after finishing uni.

There was the brilliant couple of weeks in Stourbridge volunteering with the International Glass  Festival and Bienalle. Saw some brilliant work and met some fantastic people along the way.

Of course there was graduation in Falmouth in the middle of September, quickly followed by a great 5 weeks in London interning with James Lethbridge Glass.

Pictures, updates and useful links I've found along way to follow :)

University College Falmouth Degree show private views are tonight!
Get down there if you can, if not the shows are up for 1week.

Just a few pics from Plymouth Museum.

Ok, the graduate show is up!
The show goes public on Friday 15th June with an amazing range of work.
More images and details to follow.

The work for Sinopticon at Plymouth Museum is all set up now! Very exciting.
The exhibition is running from 28th April - 7th July 2012.

This piece is a cup form that has been polished on the outside and the flat underside of the watery extensions. Polishing the underside really highlights the texture and pattern of these areas and catches the light even more.

This is just a blog to focus on my work and keep everyone updated with its progress.

Statement

Briony Maple is a glass artist inspired by emotions, expression and the ideas of fluidity. Movement and the space that glass can capture also intrigue the pieces she creates. Her work is realised through experimenting with wax and model making, resulting in sculptural forms that usually allude to function. Working mainly with casting she is fascinated by the temperamental yet versatile qualities of this material.
