About the Item
'Beyond the Horizon II' is a unique handblown and sculpted glass artwork by the British artist, Louis Thompson.
In the artist's own words:
"Beyond the Horizon, where the known and the unknown meet. The precipice on the horizon invites the viewer to explore the terrain beyond, to seek, to strive and discover. These new glass sculptures examine scale, perspective and presence. The small tree like structures appear on the edge of a landscape to defy and define existence, while contemplating the possibilities beyond the naked eye."
Accomplished glass artist Thompson explores illusion and the perceptions of glass, fascinated by the haptic experience in art and sculpture. He works with molten glass, sometimes sabotaging the material: twisting, creasing, buckling and collapsing the glass. The works have underlying themes of the human body; sensuous, tactile, echoing folds, curves and creases. With simplicity and purity of materials, he plays with the viewers’ comprehension of what is put before them, often creating collections of objects where the dialogue and relationship between each element is as essential as the collective composition.
He has exhibited extensively in the UK, Europe, USA and Japan. In 2012 Thompson received two prestigious awards in the UK: British Glass Biennale Winner and the Jerwood Foundation Makers Commission. He has been invited to create installations for various museums and international exhibitions and his work is held in permanent museum collections in Belgium, Germany, Japan, Czech Republic and the V&A Museum in London. Thompson has completed International residencies at the prestigious Museum of Glass in Tacoma, The Glazenhuis Museum in Belgium and most recently at Soneva Art Glass in the Maldives.
