arts ‘Once seen never forgo en’: Bill Mahoney exhibi on at Bay Pavilions un l Oct 30th

Bill Mahoney was born in Sydney in 1952 and moved with family to the South Coast of NSW in 1984 to establish a glass studio that would have as its goal to design and handcra all products sold in the studio. Design and construc on of leadlight windows was the star ng point but soon developed into the exci ng Stained Glass extension upon the purchase of an old school-hand kiln that would propel the work into new and fulfilling areas such as ecclesias cal work – new and restora on – and developing skills to add hand painted and kiln fired detail to commission work. Glass fusing had just surfaced onto the Art Glass arena with a range of compa ble glasses that, with the use of kilns and other equipment, be able to extend the current boundaries and uncouple the imagina on. A er comple ng 10 years as a resident glass ar st in Mogo (1985 – 94), Bill relocated to his present Studio in Batemans Bay, where he s ll conducts his classes. The exhibit of mirrors today shows what commenced 1985 – 96 with realiza on that leadlight construc on techniques were a perfect pla orm for a high quality, mber framed range of wall mirrors to add to his gi range available from Mogo Studio and beyond – Crisp Gallery, Chiswell Furniture located in Meyers Brookvale & a number of Harvey Norman stores in Sydney plus of course other galleries over the career. The website www.desiredglass.com.au home page shows Bill finishing off one of three commissioned pieces (fused, carved & painted Dolphin round panel, a painted kangaroo & cocky desert theme panel plus a mirror ‘Desert Falls’ depic ng a waterfall flowing down an escarpment. This important series of work was shipped to La Range Hotel in Iceland in 2007. For over 30 years Bill has been supplying glass used in fabrica on of his windows, to have professionally silvered (mirrored) ending up with a reasonably extensive range of coloured and textured mirror sheet glass. The outcome of a the range of mirrors today reflects all of the past influences, inspira ons and studio techniques, with great an cipa on in what lies ahead ‘to be taken away to where I am going’. ‘Elegance and Flair in Glass’ – Bill Mahoney Major training undertakings: ·37 years of professional experience – to date! ·Lutz Haufschild – Architectural Glass Design – Sydney 1988 ·Pa y Robinson – Brush Technique – Sydney approx. 1990 ·Narcissus Quadliata – Pain ng with Glass – Perth 2011 ·Klaus Moje & Kirs e Rea – ‘a Line into the Future 2’ Canberra Glassworks 2013 ·Masahiro Asaka – ‘Harmonising the Joy & Logic in the Cold Shop’ Canberra Glassworks 2013 Professional workshop
