Colin Reid
Genre: Glass
Colin Reid studied at St Martins College of Art and Stourbridge School of Art and trained as a scientific glassblower. He is an acknowledged master of cast glass as an artistic medium and has work represented in over 40 international public collections. A recent commission in UK involved casting a piece over 5ft in diameter. His sources of inspiration are numerous, but each work uses the qualities of glass – transparency, refraction and reflection – to extraordinary, dynamic effect.
Born: 1953
