Vivienne Jagger – Glass Art
Vivienne Jagger – Artist Biography
From a background in industrial design, an on again, off again interest in ceramics, and a long love affair with glass objects, I began working in glass around 2007. It is a medium that never fails to surprise and excite me. The “what if” element of glass is most compelling, inviting me always to try something new.
I am inspired by the landscape and the fluidity of nature. Having spent my early years in the soft grey tones of England, I feel invigorated by the clear brilliant hues which surround us in Western Australia I am particularly drawn to try to capture in my work the movement of water whether in the large swells of the ocean or the ripples in the shallows of a rock pool Vivienne Jagger
