Beautiful!
Seattle’s ‘Image Journal’ shares an article from The Center For Religious Humanism, authored by Londoner Justin Hopper. In his article titled “In London, a Sculptural Offering to Gods Old and New”; Hopper details “Sacré blur,” a unique stained-glass installation near London’s Hyde Park.
The diminutive stained-glass greenhouse was created by Paddington horticultural artists Tony Heywood and Alison Condie, members of the Royal British Society of Sculptors. The couple’s unique sculptural interpretation makes great use of reclaimed and reconfigured 18th & 19th Century ecclesiastical stained-glass!
It’s a fun, and decidedly skewed British twist on the traditional greenhouse, yet it became a bit of ephemera, a delightfully glowing, almost dancing whimsy, beckoning passers-by from within the dark shadows of such silent staid surroundings.
