Brian finished his MA in Ceramics and Glass at the Royal College of Art just two years ago. His work is primarily about the relationship between perception and memory. By creating forms that call upon varied possible associations he asks the viewer to reconsider what they may have initially thought they saw in the work. This allows for a deeper and richer visual experience with every encounter. His pieces start out in the form of glass rods, which are placed into a mould and slowly heated so that the molten glass fills the void. The piece is left to slowly cool a process which itself can take up to 30 days. Brian will then work laboriously on the piece of glass using different grades of diamond pads until the glass is ground and polished to the desired finish.
