Workshop staff are all practising professional artists who have national and international reputations and actively maintain contact with other institutions, arts organisations and practitioners. They specialise in a diverse range of glass applications, from design and production to conceptually based glass work, including blown glass, kiln-formed glass, engraving and lamp working.

Richard Whiteley
Richard Whiteley has been working with glass since the 1980's and he exhibits nationally and internationally. His work is held in many public collections including the Australian National Gallery, Art Bank, National Glass Collection, Wagga, Queensland Contemporary Art Gallery, Brisbane, the Victorian State Craft Collection and the Palm Spring Art Museum, California.

Nadege Desgenetez
Nadege was born and educated in France and more recently has taught in the USA, Europe and Japan. Working with blown glass for over 10 years, she refined her technical skills in Seattle as a hot shop team member for Lino Tagliapietea, Dale Chilhuly, Dante Marioni, Benjamin Moore, Dan Dailey and others.

Her own work exploits both traditional Venetian blowing techniques combined with colourful and playful designs. In her work Nadege deals with issues of misconception and social stereotypes infusing figurative elements with patterning using a range of techniques. Her glass pieces are held in numerous collections including the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh.
