Giles Bettison

SA Glass Artist, Giles Bettison, talks about his techniques and his two works on show at the Samstag Museum of Art's Abstract Nature
exhibition until 8th October.

Giles Bettison is a master glass artist from Adelaide, SA, Australia. He has evolved the ancient Venetian technique called "Murrini" or mosaic glass to construct patterned sheets from colored glass canes. He cuts and combines these sheets to build his luminous vessels piece by piece. Bettison is known world wide for his pioneering efforts using the "Murrini technique". His work is incredibly unique, combining old and new technology to create some of the finest glass available today.
