red brick glass

In 2000 after graduating with a 1st class degree in glass from Edinburgh College of Art Wendy moved into her first glass studio, a small red brick outbuilding in her home in Dorset. Wendy then received the prestigious Crafts Council Start Up Award to purchase equipment to start Red Brick Glass (the glass kiln is still going strong 20 years on!) Wendy worked as an architectural glass artist, collaborating with interior designers and architects to create large-scale glass installations and made small glass work to sell in galleries and shops. After a few years Wendy launched her website (with a new-fangled online shop) and started to run fused glass making workshops. 4 years ago Wendy moved into her new home and studio, a gorgeous barn conversion in the beautiful village of West Lulworth, Dorset. This was a dream come true as Wendy always wanted to live within walking distance from the sea. She still doesn’t take it for granted and walks to get her dose of sea air most days. Red Brick Glass continues to grow and develop. Wendy designed the make at home kits during lockdown 2020 as she couldn’t run workshops and due to their success she now needs a little help in the studio to keep up with orders. Vicki is the brilliant new studio assistant and Wendy’s teenage daughters help out at weekends and holidays (filling up colourful glass pots is the favourite job). We are very grateful to Red Brick Glass customers who have supported us over the years. We are excited for the future and hope you will follow us on our journey.

The Romney Marsh Community created The Marsh Mosaics – a series of 14 beautiful new artworks, capturing the Marsh Churches and celebrating the unique heritage and wildlife of our area. Part of the Fifth Continent Landscape Partnership Scheme and funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, the project involved 391 local participants aged 5 – 90, all guided by our very own Yolanda Houston. We want to thank all volunteers, our partners and for the generous support of The Romney Marsh Historic Churches Trust. Have a look at the video on the left as Yolanda and the project were featured on BBC Southeast recently.

bench space

I’m Karen, a silversmith with over 20 years experience in designing, making & teaching. I established BENCHspace in 2019 to share my experience and knowledge of jewellery and silversmithing and to offer people the opportunity to make in metal. I began in 1992 working in retail jewellery, qualifying as a gemmologist (FGA) and retail jeweller (RJDip) before gaining a degree in Silversmithing & Jewellery at the Sir John Cass School of Art, London. I worked as a silversmith within a busy London workshop, making bespoke large-scale commemorative and decorative silver artworks. I then went on to become a fully qualified teacher working with secondary pupils teaching Design and Technology: metalwork, woodwork and plastics. I have taught all ages and abilities over the years and I strongly believe that making is good for the soul, whatever your ability. After relocating to the Essex Coast, I gained my master’s degree in Contemporary Art & Professional Practice from Essex University.

kelvin j birk

Kelvin J. Birk produces jewellery as well as larger objects, mainly in silver and gold with all types of gemstones. Within his work he crushes precious gemstones and glues them back together, sometimes in a random uncontrolled shape, other times in a more controlled manner and then combines these stones with jewellery pieces or objects in precious metal. Within his work he is consciously disregarding what is traditionally considered precious. Birk revels in a lack of control, allows chaos to take over and the nature of the precious materials to dictate the final outcome of the pieces. His collection is constantly developing and through different creative processes new pieces emerge all the time, ensuring that no two are identical. Like the experiences of personal life, there is always destruction and loss yet out of these processes come new things and new orders. Kelvin J. Birk’s jewellery illustrates this theme of chaos and re-creation. There is always order in chaos, we lose things and we gain things. It is a constant. After Graduating in Goldsmithing and jewellery making at the Berufsfachschule fuer Glas und Schmuck, Germany, Kelvin J. Birk took his MA in Silversmithing and Jewellery (awarded with distinction) from the Sir John Cass Faculty of Art in London, UK (1997). Kelvin exhibited at various fairs and exhibitions in Great Britain, Europe, the USA, China and Taiwan. His work won him several prizes and awards and he received several grants from different funding bodies. His work has been featured in numerous magazines, newspapers and in a range of jewellery and design books. Kelvin is available for consultations and happy to discuss special commissions and bespoke pieces. He became a specialist in up-cycling old jewellery, where he recycles your unworn jewellery into a stunning new wearable piece of jewellery.
