What interests me about Glass is its inherent qualities and function. This is typically the motives that surround my past to present work.
Vicki studied Ceramics in the early 90s at Carrington Polytechnic (now Unitec), where she recently returned as an Industry Professional, mentoring students.
In 2001 she returned to study Glass at Whanganui Polytechnic, learning various techniques in the Glass making genres, casting, blowing and architectural glass. It was on completing this study that Vicki self taught herself the lampworking process and technique that she currently practices.
Vicki often combines both mediums. Developing techniques, processes and concepts that relate directly back to the inherent qualities of each or both materials.
Her studio is in Matakana where after many years of travel and various endeavours she has returned to the region where she raised.
