Launching Friday 10th February, Flamingosaurus Rex is proud to host the presentation of a new body of work by Sophia Ann West.
An exploration of colour, tone and dimension, from canvas to glass – the exhibition might best be described as a journey of encapsulation.
That most evocative of nature’s moods, the sunset, is Sophia’s inspiration; canvas the vehicle by which it takes shape. Pockets of colour and form are then captured and extruded, reborn into their native dimension by a process of transmutation at the hands of the glass artist.
In her own words:
“My technique starts in the hot glass studio. I focus on solid glass and make colourful combinations… layer after layer. Cold working and engraving patterns onto several surfaces allows the colours and textures within to shine… you cannot help but look through them.”
Take this opportunity to get a first look at the show, meet the artist, check out our gallery space and share some good times. Exhibition runs from February 10th until the end of the month, entry is free of charge and all are welcome.
