Best In Glass: Elliot Walker Virtual Demonstration
09 Oct 2021
Online
Timezone: Europe/London
This unique exhibition acts as a celebration of one of the United Kingdom’s most treasured talents, Elliot Walker.
Having joined London Glassblowing from university, Elliot’s evident artistry with glassblowing was nurtured and developed, which allowed him to go on to participate and win the Netflix show Blown Away 2. He has experienced immeasurable success ever since, having featured in exhibitions and galleries globally.
Now, Elliot is returning to the place of his origin for a special one-off show that shines a spotlight on his significant work and presence within the glass art sector.
He will be joined by partner Bethany Wood, with whom Elliot works closely on a lot of his pieces, and Laura Hart in this exhibition. Bethany, an established artist herself, has been creating glass art for the past seven years, whilst simultaneously assisting Elliot and teaching the craft to newcomers. Meanwhile, Laura utilises blown bases created by Elliot to add her own stunning glass floral embellishments. Both of these wonderful artists will be showcasing their pieces alongside Elliot in this beautifully curated exhibition.
We are also delighted to announce that Elliot will be creating a new version of his prize winning installation from Blown Away 2 in our gallery.
