Originally a site-specific work for the Salisbury Cathedral, Incandescent is a magnificent work. Cushing has gained international acclaim for her large-scale, site-specific installations of handmade colored glass. After studying an eclectic array of disciplines at the Chelsea School of Art and Design in London, Cushing focused her attention on public art, specializing in architectural ceramics and glass. She currently creates custom glass installations for private and commercial spaces.

Each site-specific glass installation is developed considering its relationship with its environment. Color sequence is also fundamental to Cushing’s artistic process, as she is attuned to the strong emotions that colors evoke. Her suspended works weave color with mesmerizing effect, conveying a sense of energy, rhythm, and harmony. They hang with a sense of fragility, their slight movement adding an ethereal quality. Accents of precious metal gilding are used to catch and refract even more ambient light, adding a new dimension to the glass installations.

With extensive experience working in a variety of disciplines, Cushing has confidently crossed over to luxury product development.
