Sophia Emmett

Sophia has been a professional glass blower, sculptor and jeweller for 30 years.

Sophia enjoys the challenge of making intimate, wearable constructions. These pieces have evolved from playing and experimenting with distinctive materials including nylon, coal, glass and layers of found graffiti. Sophia’s work has developed from an innovative approach to materials, combined with a fascination in the connection between movement and form.

“I am excited to work with a mentee who has a desire to explore and investigate unexpected materials to develop their practise”.
