Popis sběratelského kousku

Scott Chaseling initially studied sculpture at art school but in the 1980s he was drawn to the medium of glass and undertook a traineeship in glass-blowing at the Jam Factory in Adelaide. He subsequently worked with glass artists in Australia and the United States of America, and in 1991 completed post-graduate studies in glass at the ANU School of Art. Chaseling has a strong international reputation in hot glass for his technical expertise and innovation and his conceptual freshness. His work has been included in many solo and group exhibitions in Australia and overseas, and he has been the recipient of a number of prestigious glass awards, including the 2002 Gold Medal at the Bavarian State Prize in Munich, Germany and the 2004 Ranamok Glass Prize, the major Australian award for the medium. Chaseling’s favoured form is a large open vase carrying a combination of pattern and visual narrative, inside and outside. The artist paints images with colour glass enamels onto white glass, which is then fused with cut and tiled Bullseye colour glass, achieving a complex layered interaction of pattern and visual narrative. The fused sheets are rolled up into a cylindrical form and blown, a process requiring the expertise of several glass technicians. The surface is then ground back. The ‘roll-up’ process, a combination of fusing and blowing, was pioneered in international studio glass production by Chaseling and fellow glass artist Kirstie Rea. In his work Chaseling is essentially a storyteller whose engaging images derive from nostalgic popular culture such as comic books and boys’ own annuals. There is a dream-like quality in his snapshots of familiar, ordinary life and a nod to another time, a parallel world of memories and associations. For the artist the images exist to suggest rather than circumscribe, and their decorative setting and enigmatic texts further locate them in the spaces of the imagination. Chaseling’s vigorous style and bold palette reflect the influence of the Venetian glass tradition; paradoxically the modernity of his work and its technical bravura confirms its place within the medium’s enduring language of ornamentation and innovation.

Scott Chaseling: Sculptural Glass – A Journey Through Form and Light

Scott Chaseling, born in Darwin, Australia, in 1962, represents a remarkable convergence of artistic vision and technical prowess within the realm of contemporary glass art. His oeuvre isn’t merely about crafting beautiful objects; it's a profound investigation into material properties, meticulous process development, and crucially, the transformative power of light—elements that consistently permeate his distinctive style. From formative studies at Canberra School of Art to advanced qualifications gained at the University of Sydney, Chaseling’s academic foundation instilled not only artistic principles but also an unparalleled mastery of glass casting techniques. This technique – demanding unwavering concentration and considerable patience – distinguishes Chaseling from many other artists. Instead of attempting to replicate existing forms, he harnesses the inherent dynamism of molten glass, coaxing forth textures and patterns that emerge spontaneously during the casting process under intense heat and vibration. The resulting sculptures frequently evoke images of geological formations or abstracted landscapes, reflecting his enduring fascination with natural forces and their ability to sculpt matter over time. This deliberate mirroring of nature’s processes underscores Chaseling's belief in art as a conduit for conveying fundamental truths about beauty and permanence. Influenced by the austere elegance of Minimalist aesthetics and fueled by an ardent admiration for Japanese ceramics, particularly Raku firing—a method celebrated for its unpredictable results—Chasingel’s artistic approach embodies a purposeful restraint that prioritizes core visual elements. The sculptures produced are imbued with an otherworldly grace, capturing fleeting moments of luminescence and prompting viewers to contemplate the symbiotic relationship between artist and material – a connection that transcends mere craftsmanship. Artists such as Richard Glazier and Edmund Stoneman served as pivotal inspirations for Chaseling, recognizing their unwavering dedication to unlocking the expressive potential of glass beyond conventional decorative roles. They championed exploration and experimentation, mirroring Chaseling’s own ethos. A significant validation of his artistic commitment arrived in 2009 with the bestowal of the prestigious Ranamok Glass Prize, acknowledging his invaluable contribution to Australian glass art and establishing him as a leading figure within the field. His sculptures are proudly displayed in esteemed collections including the National Gallery of Australia and the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Washington – institutions that recognize Chaseling’s enduring legacy as an innovator and visionary artist. He continues to push boundaries, demonstrating the remarkable capacity of sculptural glass to communicate complex ideas about transformation, contemplation, and ultimately, the sublime experience of encountering beauty.

Notable Exhibitions: Solo exhibitions at Peter Scott Gallery (Lancaster University), Tunbridge Wells Museum & Art Gallery, and numerous international showcases have showcased Chaseling’s groundbreaking work on a global scale.
Education: He lectured in Glass Art at Canberra School of Art and subsequently pursued postgraduate studies at the University of Sydney, furthering his artistic understanding and honing his pedagogical skills.
Awards: The Ranamok Glass Prize (2009) stands as a testament to his dedication and recognition within the Australian glass art community.
