Tall Glass Sculpture ‘Osseous’ by Tracy Nicholls

Osseous is a tall glass sculpture that is strong yet graceful in its appearance. Tracy’s interpretation of disintegration is cleverly captured within.  Mindful and precise Tracy’s hand cuts her vision into the two glass panels.

Fired multiple times, the resulting fusion, slumping and consequential undulations create the desired movement and depth.

Light brings this piece to life,  shadows are then cast as the light dances through the fissures of the web. The height of this tall glass sculpture ensures that the accompanying silhouette is ever-changing throughout the day!

A delightful piece that would complement any of those within the Tracy Nicholls series’.

Tall Glass Sculpture Artist

British Glass artist Tracy Nicholls discovered glass during evening classes she attended in 2003.  Perusing her interest in glass, Tracy went on to complete an MA in Contemporary Craft- Glass, at UCA Farnham. Graduating with Distinction in 2009.

Tracy has set up her studio in Kingston, Surrey.  Tracy works predominantly with opaque glass to create her signature pieces.  Intrigued by the nature of erosion, Tracy studies the disintegration of solid forms over time. Observing the transition of the ever more delicate and fragile form. Subsequently transforming into an absorbing, lace-like structure. Simplicity is the key to her work and favours the monochrome colour palette, using light, shape and form to capture the eye.

In 2008 Tracy won, ‘Best in Show’ at the British Glass Biennale.  In 2014 her work was included in Europe’s prestigious Coburg Glass Prize in Germany.   Tracy’s Sculptures are present in many exhibitions throughout Europe and the UK.  Her work can be found in both private and public collections, including the National Museum of Scotland and the Marinha Grande Museum of Glass in Portugal.
