| Zoe Gadsby Applied Art | |
| Zoë spent her early years in Hong Kong and returned to Scotland in the 1980’s. Having graduated from the Environmental Art Dept. at Glasgow School of Art in 1995, her early installation work explored light and colour and was influenced by meditational and experiential art. A further 2 years of study in Architectural and Kiln Formed Glass from 1998 -2000 were a natural progression of this photography and sculpture based work. | |

| Artist's Statement: | |
| I like to explore and manipulate glass’s transformational qualities using vivid, luminous colour that powerfully engages the senses and abstraction through geometric form. Simple geometric symbols and complex geometric patterning reflect naturally occurring chaotic forms fused with high-tech. circuitry, microscopic photography of viruses, cells and even atoms. | |
