Susan Kinley

 I work with glass and enamels, making wall panels and framed assemblages, often as a response to archaeological sites and ancient landscapes across Cornwall and the wider South West. Translucent and transparent sheets of hand made glass are cut, shaped and fired, layered with glass powders and fragments of photographic imagery. These are often combined with enamelled copper. All wall pieces interact with light, often casting coloured shadows as they are mounted slightly away from the wall surface.

Works range in scale from micro glass shaped wall pieces to larger framed panels, assemblages and constructions. I have undertaken many commissions for private interiors and public buildings, including Penlee House Gallery & Musem, Penzance. Recent exhibitions have included Collect International Art Fair at Somerset House, and in Cornwall I am a member of the Newlyn Society of Artists.
