For the last few years Brindley has been working almost exclusively in ‘architectural-glass’ (aka stained-glass) under the alias ‘Pavilion Pavilion’. As a site specific intervention, his work attempts to re-address the role of ornamentation in architecture, and to give back specificity and value to spaces by the objects that inhabit them. Art to live with, rather than art to look at. Brindley’s stained glass work explores how we can be sensitive to the quality of light present and available in a space, and how we might enhance it with glass.
This series of Cast Iron works by Brindley are an arrangement of prisms informed by lenses and glass found in lighthouses. As a means to direct and focus light to a specific focus, Brindley is interested in how we might re-imagine the role of glass and windows in contemporary architecture.
