Description
Robin Stanaway here moves from being a glass artist to an artist exploring the effects achieved by glass lenses in this case some hundreds of spectacles donated for the purposes of this exhibition. Light passes through them to some effect, but looking through the arranged ranks of lenses also alters the viewers’ perceptions. Such discarded spectacles also evoke imprinted memories of past owners.
