Fast, Faster, Fastest - Peter Revelman
Clear cut glass is set down on kiln paper with a second coloured overlapping layer on top. The contoured fusing process results in uneven depth and shapes. The glass, with its light and pure colours and variations created by overlays bring dull black and white sketch plans to life. With a mind of its own the molten glass will decide where it runs, bringing another challenge to a rewarding process. Two pieces may start with the same layout, after kiln and glass combine, no two can ever be the same. All pieces are fused, coloured, transparent glass.
Bio: I have spent the last 20 years as a mold maker for artists and sculptors, always keen to produce my own work with multi coloured sculptures in resin, never to succeed. At the tender age of 75 I was introduced to glass fusing. Over the past 18 months I have had some most helpful advice. This year 2021, I entered the Maroondah Art Acquisition Awards, my first entry into a competition. I was fortunate enough to win joint first prize.
