Glassblowing the Movie
After studying craft design, Stephen Bradbourne had the chance to learn glassblowing from one of New Zealand’s best glassblowers. He seized this opportunity and has never looked back, overcoming his biggest challenge which was to master the material. In a workshop with the American glass artists Dick Marquis and Dante Marioni he learned murrine, an Italian technique for creating coloured patterns of images.
Some ten years ago he decided to focus entirely on his own work, which turned out to be a brilliant move. The film shows him at work.
