An exhibition of glassworks exploring the materiality of glass as a metaphor for surviving domestic abuse, created in the socially engaged art project From the Fragment to the Whole

About

Artist Roberta De Caro has been working with survivors of domestic abuse in one-to-one glass making workshops to create the collection 'From the Fragment to the Whole', a series of abstract glassworks that tell their stories of resilience.

This project springs from Roberta's research into material engagement as a path to process life events and trauma though making, glass being a material that mirrors many characteristsic of domestic abuse.  

This multi-award winning project is supported using the National Lottery funds through Arts Council England. 

The exhibition is free to attend. All are welcome to visit, and purchase a unique glass artwork. All proceeds from the sales of the artworks will fund future workshops of From the Fragment to the Whole, and will partly be donated to the domestic abuse charity Women’s Aid.
