Poppy Templeton. Born 1992, playing with glass since 2021.
A note on materials
Stained glass is inherently delicate, this fragility is part of what draws me to the medium. Pieces should always be handled thoughtfully and with care.
I often repurpose found mirror and use vintage glass, so while subtle irregularities and variations may be present, these are part of the material’s history and do not affect the structural integrity of the work.
All stained-glass and mirror pieces are made using lead. While lead is a toxic material, in finished works the lead is fully integrated and sealed within the piece, making it stable for occasional handling and wear.
Country
My works are made on the land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. I pay my respects to their Elders past, present and future, and acknowledge that sovereignty has never been ceded. A percentage of all sales goes toPay the Rent.
