Fogbow Mirror in Coloured Glass, Copper and Lead Solder by Poppy Templeton

About the work:

Fogbow Mirror in Coloured Glass, Copper and Lead Solder by Poppy Templeton aka Duck Ragu.

Using geometric forms reminiscent of building blocks or paper cut-outs, in colour palettes borrowed from sunsets and flowerbeds, this work elicits a warm but vague familiarity. Using mirrored glass to provide function and works with the traditional Tiffany technique for its delicate quality.

Every Poppy Templeton product contains lead. Lead is a toxic metal and contact with it should be limited. Washing your hands after handling hanging pieces and resealing wearable pieces with buffing wax will help prevent lead exposure.

About the Artist:

Poppy is a Naarm based artist exploring colour and light through the medium of glass. She first encountered glass art in her family home on the Queensland coast where her mother’s leadlights sat in the windows.
Her own stained-glass plays with pattern and abstraction, allowing the limitations of the medium to dictate design.

Artwork Details:

- Made in Naarm/Melbourne
