Samantha’s affinity with glass is one of resonance. To her it shares similarities running parallel with the presence of spirits energies – translucent subtleties of shimmering gracefulness, simultaneously emanating light with majestic elegance and whimsical playfulness. Samantha has a Bachelor in Design and Visual Arts from Unitec Auckland and in her third year of study Samantha was encouraged to enter the NZSAG Exhibition, held at the TSB Wallace Arts Trust Gallery. She was both surprised and delighted to have her Glass Sculpture ‘Avoid Crash Landings’, selected to become part of Sir James Wallace’s renowned glass collection.
