solid – Masters of Glass

4-28 Feb 2026

IMAGES OF ARTWORKS ON EXHIBITION WILL BE AVAILABLE PRIOR TO THE OPENING DATE. PLEASE CONTACT THE GALLERY FOR AN EXHIBITION PREVIEW OR A DIGITAL SALES CATALOGUE

As part of Sabbia’s ongoing Masters of Glass series — first developed by Director Anna Grigson in 1996 — we are delighted to present solid, the exhibition that opens our 2026 program.

This dynamic and exceptionally beautiful exhibition brings together artists who work in kiln‑formed or cast glass and who explore the material for its inherent solidity.

Each artist approaches the medium in a distinct way, whether drawing on its translucent depths or embracing the rich colour, density, and tonal variations that emerge when glass is treated as a solid mass.

The selected artists for this significant exhibition are

MATTHEW CURTIS

MEL DOUGLAS

ROSE-MARY FAULKNER

BRENDEN SCOTT FRENCH

LOUIS GRANT

JESSICA LOUGHLIN

JEFFREY SARMIENTO

JANICE VITKOVSKY
