Wall panels/installations

Siobhan's bespoke glass wall installations can be made to your specification of colour, design and size. All panels are suitable for the interior or exterior, for the public, private and corporate sectors, adding a contemporary visual with clean lines to all environments.
Often using iridescent glass, the panels change with the light throughout the day and night, creating dynamic effects as they float an inch from the wall with the brackets supplied.

Sculpture

Combining steel and kiln formed glass to create unique sculpture for outdoor living environments. Pieces can also be made for interior spaces including entrance halls, lobbies and reception areas. All pieces tailor made to your requirements of colour, design and scale to balance proportionately with the allocated space.
The steel framework and bases can be left in its 'organic' state or powder coated in any colour of your choice to compliment your environment.

Commissions

Siobhan's work can be used for many applications including room partitions, tables, customized tiles/backsplashes, furniture inlays, and windows. Commissions to date have been for various venues including cruise liners, bars, libraries, hospitals, sports centres, schools, hotels, corporate head offices, the Chinese and French Embassy’s together with many private homes.
Commission possibilities are as wide and varied as the people and places they are made for. By commissioning work you can choose the colour, design, size and form of a piece ensuring it complements the surrounding in which it is to be placed.

Technique

Siobhan works exclusively with high quality opal and transparent glass that is tested for colour compatibility, using solid colour that will not fade. Shaping thin canes of glass, layering colour, adding bubbles and creating voids are used in conjunction with the fusing process adding decoration and depth. All of the glass is hand cut and arranged ensuring attention to detail in every piece.
