Jackie is in a unique position where she is professionally qualified and experienced as a glass artist and a blacksmith. This enables her to really push the creative and technical boundaries, ensuring all her work continues to be exciting and original.
When designing for exterior environments Jackie endeavours to create a piece of art that not only brings additional energy to the space that it is intended, but that also has architectural qualities. She likes to design in a site-specific way using the existing environment as a spring-board for her initial design concepts e.g. taking into account direction of the sun, what exists already and who is going to be using the space. Each piece of architectural garden glass is individual and is held in a material which is a congruent part of the overall design, normally metal or wood depending on design requirements.
Examples of Jackie’s sculptural work can be seen at her workshop and are also exhibited nationally.
