Glassworks Artist Talks are a free public program offering insight into contemporary glass and cross-disciplinary practice. Across the year, artists in residence and visiting practitioners present informal talks on their work, creative process and current experimentation.

Held in the Canberra Glassworks foyer, these conversations create an open and welcoming space to hear directly from artists, ask questions and connect with the broader arts community. Whether you are an artist, student, collector or simply curious, everyone is welcome. No prior knowledge required

Speakers

Blanche Tilden

Based in Naarm (Melbourne VIC), Blanche Tilden is a master jeweller and glass artist renowned for her iconic contemporary jewellery.

Her practice brings together industrial processes and found materials, including precious metals and borosilicate glass, creating works that are bold, technically accomplished, and immediately recognisable.

Harriet Schwarzrock

Based in Ngunnawal (Canberra and Queanbeyan), Harriet Schwarzrock is a sculptural glass and plasma artist currently completing her PhD at the Australian National University, School of Art and Design.

Working with salvaged borosilicate glass and traditional laboratory apparatus, Schwarzrock sculpts vessels that contain plasma, producing glowing objects that resemble an aurora in a bottle.
