Lulu Harrison

2023 QEST Johnnie Walker Scholar - Glass Making & Glasswork
London

Lulu is a self-taught glass artist specialising in glass alchemy, with an MA in Material Futures from Central Saint Martin’s. She creates glass artefacts inspired by primitive glass making and works with waste and local resources, ensuring she has as little impact on the environment as possible. 

A 2023 QEST Scholarship will enable Lulu to pioneer experimental and sustainable glassmaking using locally sourced and waste materials. She will receive one-on-one training from glass scientist and historical glass expert, Dr Chloe Duckworth, to develop her skills and knowledge in material science, the history of glassmaking, traditional craft, and sustainability. The scholarship will support the development and promotion of this unique glassmaking approach, with the goal of achieving scalable production.

As a researcher, artist and maker in sustainable material development, my inspiration comes through combining ancient & contemporary design narratives. I am interested in creating glass which is unique to a specific geological region, working with local communities and traditional firing techniques.
