Tim Tate talks about the use of new media in glass.
The most delightful part of the talk was when the environmental themed work of Alison Sigethy was discussed. Alison was not able to be part of at the talk, and one of the audience jumped in wanting to talk on her behalf, as Alison’s work is one of her favorites.
The audience provided new insights to Alison Sigethy’s work.
