Designer and artist Martyn Thompson reimagines his ceramic vessels in glass, blending nostalgia and modernity through a tactile, painterly approach. Curated by Aimee Frodsham, the exhibition integrates his new glasswork with textiles, furniture, and objects from his studio, reflecting his evolving creative journey.
Starting his career as a fashion designer in Sydney in the mid-1980s, Thompson became captivated by fashion photography.
