Siobhan Healy (BA Hons) is the designer for Nattyglass. She
has been working with glass for approx 14 years. She completed a degree specialising in Architectural Glass at Edinburgh
College of Art. Head of glass department was Dr Ray Flavell.
Healy designs and makes architectural glass
panels, sculptural forms and in contrast, delicate crystal jewellery. She is based in the WASPS- Artists Studio Spaces, Denniston,
Glasgow.
The designer/maker is the Hon. Secretary of the Scottish Glass Society and is a member
of the Contemporary Glass Society, Craftscotland and the Association for Contemporary Jewellery. She exhibits regularly
and accepts commissions.
Siobhan is interested in using details of plant
anatomy in her designs, which assume an abstract, ethereal quality. She finds that the fragility of handmade glass and the
subtle range of hues, lend themselves to creating flower petals and leaves.
"My
work is influenced by fleeting moments in the natural world. The intention is that the work will connect with
people on a deeper level, to evoke distant memories and to conjure up reassuring feelings invoked by nature."
