Rebecca Geary
Rebecca Geary is a glass artist who works predominantly with experimental mosaic.
Studio: MSS 2
Geary was studied at the University of Sydney, Sydney College of the Arts where she received a BVA (hons) in Electronic and Temporal Art. She exhibited videos and interactive CD-ROMs widely in Australia before an extended period abroad. Whilst she maintained her media skills Geary started to explore the traditions and possibilities of mosaic. After working in a media that is strongly cerebral she greatly enjoyed the contrast of the tactile. As a continuation of her electronic media work, Geary explores the importance of light, how it refracts and reflects through the glass. To achieve this she experiments with the different textures and surfaces possible when working with glass.
She is also the creator and managing director of Make Space Studios. The art studios are well established now and she is very proud of the creative community that she has started.
