Darwin Dolinka-Korda

ARTIST’S BACKGROUND

Worked mainly in textiles and soft fabrics at Shaftesbury and Clifden centres: leaded glass copper foil, fusing, slumping, casting, lost wax.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT

I was inspired by Dale Chihuly's exhibition at the V&A and the way he uses colour in glass.

My personal philosophy as an artist has always been to use the richness of colour and the precision of form to generate artworks that seek to add to the pleasures of living and the working environment.
