Siobhan Healy (BA Hons) is the designer for Nattyglass. She
has been working with glass for approx 10 years.
She designs and makes architectural glass
panels, large crystal forms and in contrast, delicate crystal jewellery.
Designs
for individuals are made within the 'Architectural Glass Artists' studio, based in the Wasps Studios, Denniston, Glasgow.
Siobhan 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 quality. She finds that the fragility of handmade glass and the subtle range
of hues, lend themselves to creating flower petals and leaves.
She has researched plants with medicinal properties
and the folklore associated with herbal remedies. 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.
