About the Item

'Distortion I' is a unique sculptural artwork by the British artist, Emma Baker. Baker is hugely inspired by the materiality of glass and the ideology behind the hand of the maker. With a strong emphasis on process, she works with themes of narrative and sentiment to conceive and create her artworks. With a passion for learning and understanding the material, Baker has worked with an abundance of glassmakers in a variety of locations. In 2019 she became one of two Associate Artists at North Lands Creative, a two-year programme supporting developing the practice of glass artists. She spent 2020 living and working in Bergen, Norway, keeping the furnace alight at S12 Galleri og Verksted, an incredible experience that Baker describes as a pivotal point in her life and career. In the summer of 2022, the United Nations’ year of glass, she was invited by the National Glas Museum in Leerdam, Holland, for an international glass exchange to create work that is now held in their public collection. She has been awarded residencies at Berlin Glas, The Glass Factory and S12 Bergen; alongside this her work has been shown across the UK Europe. She has received scholarship funding to the USA and has worked on international cross-cultural projects supported by British Council Scotland and Creative Europe. She has also been a teaching assistant at North Lands Creative, Bild-Werk Frauenau and Corning Museum of Glass.
