About David Reekie
As a founding member of the Contemporary Glass Society, David has reached international recognition. David’s work stands out in the glass world through a combination of his innovative lost wax casting techniques, commentary on political and societal dynamics, and his ability to capture the complexity of human relationships. In the words of David, he is a “figurative sculptor using satire and surreal theatre to express observations and frustrations about society”.
An artist central to our glass community, his work has been held in prestigious institutions, including the Victoria and Albert Museum and Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh.
