Patrick Wong
Art Glass
Artist Statement
My work is hot-worked solid glass,
influenced by both classical and primitive
traditions of sculpture.
I am interested in the body as the external
expression of an internal existence.
In addition to my sculpture I make a range
of colourful retro inspired vases,
paperweights and scent bottles.
