Matthew Curtis and Harriet Schwarzrock
Our glass practice is in itself shifting puzzle, at times a raucous family affair with contributions from our two lovely teenage boys. At other moments it is a quiet distillation of material: allowing for the contemplation and placement of components and forms to create sculptural works.
We run our studio from our warehouse situated in our backyard in Queanbeyan, NSW, Australia. Where we melt our own colour in the furnace, blowing and casting glass and producing sculptural objects for exhibitions and commissions.
