Stunningly beautiful work from Elliot Walker! Very impressive! Compliments as well to the V&A social media team, for consistently producing very interesting and inspiring high quality education videos!
You'd be very welcome over to Elliot Studio in Stourbridge. We have lots of his work on display in our gallery alongside the studio and over at the Stourbridge Glass Museum across the road from us.
GORGEOUS!!! This made me think of knitting, which I do, and how, in a way, you can 'undo' a glass piece and redo it again and again, much like a knitting project. What a creative dance, with an assistant as well. You don't create glassworks like that completely on your own.
what an incredible way to reproduce that fragment. thanks for taking us through the process, such stunning results. i live in seattle, washington, in the US, & we have quite a bit of glassblowing/sculpting here, so i've seen more glasswork than the average person. your ideas & pieces are really moving & introspective. bravo, sir! i hope you & your crew continue to create & push the limits long into the future. 😻
These are the only moments I ever dream of being rich. I am however content with just knowing there still is beauty made in the world most of the time.
I would love such artwork in my house, but I have a hairy inhabitant who is not safe around such objects! Lovely to see how they're produced, thank you :)
Youre brilliant. Im an artist and i think a pretty great one but i dont even have to try to do what you do to know it would look like i couldn't use a crayon properly by what i would produce which would be a blob of something before i broke it!!! I heard when I was little do what you're passionate about and be the best at it, the best in the world even, and sir i believe you are. I live a short distance from Corning glass which they claim to be the best in the world. you make them look like amatures. I'm truly so extremely impressed that i want to cry. Beauty does that to me.
That was stunning,so beautiful. Usually,when working with high temperatures fireproof garments and face guards are used.Could you,please,explain why these are not needed when sculpting glass. Thank you
the heat is really contained in the forge with just the small glory hole for the glass to enter, and then after that its just the one very hot blob, which has no chance of just like randomly exploding. And unlike metal forged products, the artist is not going to get hit with splash-back from pouring or fragments of metal from sculpting.

I love listening to him explaining what he’s doing, it’s so informative. He’s such a talented artist
Agreed, hearing the explanation is so much better than silence or music.
I loved watching Elliot compete in Blown Away. He is sooooo talented.
Yes!! I first saw him here and when I recognised the name I was like OMG ELLIOOOTTTT !!
Love it! Glass is magic, and the work of Elliot is very beautiful
An absolutely magnificent interpretation of the original piece. I love it. So creative and yet true to the original. Bravo.
What an expert - Elliot's work is stunning and has explained the complicated process so clearly. Thank you so much.
I would love to see his work how talented.
I think he won the 2nd season of Blown in Glass in Netflix.

Absolutely Gorgeous brother, very striking to rhe eyes, incredible, fantastic finish
This is so mind blowing. How the flesh and bone and skin has been created . it's the most incredible piece of glasswork I've ever seen. Amazing!
His work is phenomenal! Such an interesting video.
Wow. Sensational! What skill and what a pleasure to see how that skill is used to make such a beautiful piece. Thank you.
Thank you God, for giving me eyes to see something so beautiful, and such talent in action!
Love seeing the finishing touches of polishing and cutting. I love watching glass blowing.
This is a really splendid video and so well presented by the artist. Well done V&A and well done Elliot Walker.
Bravo! Elliot. The video is riveting and makes one appreciate the skill and design that goes into these pieces.
Fantastic! His patience and skill are off the chart! Very cool 😎

Sooo beautiful! The effect of the interior of the fish or the orange are amazing
The cross-section of the fish is so cool
Absolutely stunning and inspiring!
There were a lot of talented artists in the 2nd season of Blown Away but he was my favorite. Nice to hear him talk about his process!
Absolutely amazing artist. Glass is my favorite form of art…..

I would have loved to get this artist to do me a piece of glass work
Elliot takes commissions! ;)
wowowowo
❤❤❤
What brand is the furnace?
this museum is guilty of horrendous amounts of cultural appropriation and as a glassblower i would rather not be associated with it.
"Art" is a huge waste of resources and a huge addition to waste
So are humans like yourself.
Amazing work!
