“Do you have a special view or place? I’m sure we all do”.
Helen Slater Stokes makes unique glass sculptures, using techniques developed over 25 years as a glass artist. Based in Oxfordshire, Helen’s glasswork draws inspiration from spaces and places within changing environments.
“From childhood spaces, to places of quiet contemplation, I feel we all have special environments which take us back to other times in our lives. These works attempt to capture these spaces and preserve them within glass, even though they have changed as time has moved on”.
Helen has pioneered work of the 3D or spatial image, within glass, exploring our perception of space. She also produces works for the home which capture a place, history or landscape. She is able to work with a particular view and colour palette, to capture an associated emotion and the real essence of a special place.
