Panel made in February 2008 for the British Society of Master Glass Painters summer exhibition ('40cm2')
Brief was to do whatever you liked within a fixed frame size. I went for a kind of present day Hieronymous Bosch effect with an otherwise oblivious Humanity caught between the forces of Light and Darkness - It was an opportunity to do something a little 'different' with an open brief and no client or architectural setting to worry about for a change.
The entire piece is executed in 'scraffito', each piece having first been completely blackened wih a wash of paint, into which are etched the images once the paint is dry, working in reverse by bringing the images out of darkness.
