Jo Vincent

Jo works with various kiln formed glass processes, casting, fusing and bending glass into hand made moulds. She has worked on large scale commissions for commercial and private clients. Her personal work is inspired by the landscape and geological features around her, coastal areas, lakes and fells where she is often found swimming and running amongst them.

I began using domestic clear glass, then worked with glass blowers in cameo, graal and flashed glasses. Fusing opened new opportunities that I am still exploring. I’m leaning towards sculptures mixing glass with other materials as frames for flat panels in clear and thicker flash glass.

‘I love working with glass and enjoy the unpredictable nature of the stained glass process. I often start with an idea or sketch which I then turn into a pattern. I like using the Tiffany Technique of applying copper foil to emphasise delicate areas of my design and I combine this with the more traditional technique of lead work to add focus and strength.
I use reclaimed or scrap glass whenever I can as I love the thought of breathing new life into something which has been discarded by another. There’s nothing better than opening a box of scrap glass to see what treasures are lurking inside! The mishmash of colours, textures and transparency encourages me to experiment with different combinations of glass in my designs.
My favourite part of making stained glass is at the end when I add patina, etching and polish. That’s when it really comes to life!’

I get my inspiration from my surroundings and indeed from the glass itself. I am fascinated by the way this material behaves at different temperatures, be it in sheet frit or powdered form, and like to experiment with various combinations of size, thickness and temperature, exploring colour, opacity and texture. This interaction of creativity with science, often exploiting chance whilst still maintaining control, makes glass such a magical medium to work with. Consequently, each of my pieces is totally unique!

I have been fortunate enough to have my work selected for several juried Open Art Exhibitions in London and the South West including the RSMA, the RBA and the RWA. I also invite people to view my work during Hampshire Open Studios.
