Eternal Exchange XVII - Jackson Fawkes

What better week than NATIONAL TREE WEEK to announce that LIVING COLUMN is now part of the @nationaltrust collection and will remain permanently @buscot_park
•
A huge sycamore planted circa 1780 inspired us to create LIVING COLUMN in 2022. It is a Jackson Fawkes collaborative glass sculpture and we ventured into the technology of jet cutting thick glass for the first time.
Trees are windows into the mechanics of life, with our survival inexorably linked to our stewardship of their care. Time is carved into the bark of these magnificent living columns, as they bear witness to the passing ages.
•
Buscot Park has an ongoing programme of tree planting and maintenance of the Pleasure Gardens… but you will have to wait until their 2025 season to visit now!
The Tree Council brings everyone together with a shared mission to care for trees and our planet’s future. @thetreecouncil has lots of information on its website of how to get involved with trees and has events happening this weekend.
Living Column enter was purchased through the Buscot Park Millennium Fund for future generations to enjoy.

TWO VIEWS IV, a new collaborative glass sculpture by the two of us, is part of Symbiose, le verre en duo @charleroimuseum in Belgium until 09.93.25.
We have been collaborating for 20 years, drawing on our mutual experience as artists working with glass to create, separately and together, works that question the complexity of life.

Yesterday evening was the opening of SYMBIOSE, LE VERRE EN DUO @charleroimuseum in Belgium. We are absolutely delighted to have 5 new glass artworks between us in this incredible Focus exhibition of the work by 11 couples collaborating in glass. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with @cathou79 the museum curator who’s knowledge of glass and hard work dedicated to the delivery of exhibitions at the glass museum makes it happen there.
We can highly recommend a visit to explore this historical site.
Symbiose is open now until 05.03.2025 so we will have more posts to follow about the content of Sybiose, the verre en duo!

Saturday was a full on GLASS day in Stourbridge at the closing of @ifog2024 . First stop @glassmuseumuk to see the New Horizons exhibition with Richard’s Final Carrier Forgotten XVI in. Swipe to see some other pieces in the show by @opalseabrook , @sbrownglass and @kente_glass . These last two won prizes at the British Glass Beinnale too - big congrats!

On to @blowfish_gallery to see their 15 x15
exhibition where glass artists were challenged to make a piece no larger than 15 x 15 xm. Thank you to @bethjadewood for opening up especially for us - Hugely grateful and a great show.

Then to the British Glass Biennale for the closing ceremony and to have a REALLY good look at all the glasswork on display. Swipe for a selected few piece that stood out by @m.ostromecka , @jessieleeart , @isabellakullmann , @martindonlinartist , @lolalazarohinks , @tracey.sheppard_ and a big thank you to @glass_hack_projects for his years of curating the BGB.

Next Lines Threads and Traces curated by @ayakotani_glass introduced us to some artists work previously unknown to us. Work by China Kobayashi shown.

Then a surprise was to see Richard’s sculpture that was purchased by the Ruskin Collection from the 2004 British Glass Biennale.
