PAULA RYLATT

‘I am an American who has lived in Britain since 1978. I have been a practicing glass artist since 2000, after receiving a degree in Decorative Crafts.

There are two main things that inspire me: trees and the sea. There is a sense of change within constancy and movement within stillness inherent in both which intrigues me. There is something of those dynamics in my use of clear, fused glass; a solid material that looks like it will melt away, a ghost image of a place that allows the “here and now” to be seen through it.’
