‘Openings’ are independent wall pieces, designed as exhibition panels.

They are composed of two sheets of transparent glass, one mouth-blown and one float glass, which are acid-etched, sandblasted and silver stained.

Alignment of visual elements shifts as the viewer moves, creating a kinetic experience. ‘Silvering’ of the silver stain creates a patina on the surface of the glass which changes transparent gold areas to opaque silver/turquoise with changing angle of view.

Sizes are either 2’ x 2” or 2’ x 2’6”. The panels may be displayed as individual pieces or in sets of two to four panels. They may also be seen as prototypes for a multiple unit screen, composed with tension wire system hanging elements.

The pieces are suitable for wall-mounting or window-mounting, and produce exquisite light projections either onto the wall when front-lit or into the space when backlit.

Included in this set is a competition entry design for a window in Augsburg Cathedral.
