Coming from very different cultures, South Korean artist Kim Dong Wan and Australian First Nations designer maker Lucy Simpson, a Yuwaalaraay wirringgaa (woman), have a common thread. Each has developed a singular making process melding glass and organic materials.
In Light from Nature their work intersects around the transformation of ancient skills, materials and stories into compelling contemporary craft.
