Helen Slater Stokes

Glass Artist and Lecturer; Helen graduated from The Royal College of Art, with a master’s degree in 3D Design: Glass & Ceramics, in 1996 and since then has been lecturing and making glass sculptures from her workshop in the Cotswolds. She subsequently completed a part-time PhD by practice, in 2021, at The Royal College of Art.

Helen's work explores the creation of the 3D or spatial image, within glass, and the notion of glass as a facilitator, in working with and challenging our perception of space. These unique glass pieces vary in scale from dramatic life-size outdoor figures to delicate tabletop casts for interiors.

I have met many teachers and professors in my life, Helen is one of the best! She can explain wonderfully and shares her profound knowledge. She also answers questions that go beyond the course, encouraged to experiment. In addition, she is a great artist herself.
