Icecap Pyramid

Over the years ecological concerns have loomed large in Peter Layton’s work. In the late 1960’s he exhibited a group of large multi media installations entitled ‘Please keep off the Grass’ and he continues to be preoccupied by these ever more pressing issues. Current versions are different. Small and compact, solid forms are manipulated in molten coloured glass and are cut and polished when cold to reveal complex and convoluted interiors which contrast with their polished reflective exterior surfaces.
