Game (2016) ‘Contemporary British Crafts: The Goodison Gift to the Fitzwilliam Museum’. London: Philip Wilson Publishers: Catherine Hough was first introduced to glass in the 1970s through enrolling on a short course at the Glasshouse in London. The Glasshouse was a well equipped glass studio that had been established in 1969 in Neal Street by American artist Sam Herman (b.1936), with the support of Graham Hughes, in order to provide a workshop that would act as a halfway house between college and the real world for young graduates. Graham Hughes (1926–2010) was an influential voice in British art and design both as Art Director of the Goldsmiths’ Company (1951–81) and Chair of the British Crafts Centre from 1965. Hough subsequently gained a BA in Glass at Stourbridge College of Art and spent two years as artist-in-residence at Royal Brierley Crystal. She returned to the Glasshouse before establishing a new business, Glassworks, in 1985, and creating an independent studio in 1998. Pebbles and rock formations often influence the shape and surfaces of her works, but it is the qualities of glass as a transparent medium that give full expression to each piece. Catherine Hough: ‘Nucleus represented an important step in my development of asymmetrical free-blown forms using a mass of clear glass suspending a small inner bubble. Techniques such as carving, cutting and texturing with diamond and carborundum wheels, grinding and polishing, sandblasting and brushing are used to manipulate the outer surface into abstract patterns which create shifting reflections of the inner space.’ reference term-109890 adlib-term-109890 825251c2-9904-34be-b6ab-c855347f2247 20th Century, Late reference term-107700 adlib-term-107700 8f5360fb-b262-3ae9-8942-b81cc0e3e848 Elizabeth II reference term-106216 adlib-term-106216 825b8379-ec94-388e-9a59-624e40c090d0 literal England England country London Height cm 13.5 Length cm 19 reference media-196723 adlib-media-196723 70ddbd2e-75b9-3e6e-a7b8-3e22e59958ee jpeg aa/aa33/large_C_4_1999_1_20605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1616260150340 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/mid_C_4_1999_1_20605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1616260150340 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/C_4_1999_1_20605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1616260150340 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/preview_C_4_1999_1_20605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1616260150340 1 image 0 media image reference media-196724 adlib-media-196724 d1c9f0a3-70fd-36c4-873a-630b9c73a2b8 jpeg aa/aa33/large_C_4_1999_3_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 954 width pixels 1024 1616279182277 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/mid_C_4_1999_3_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 466 width pixels 500 1616279182277 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/C_4_1999_3_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 955 width pixels 1025 1616279182277 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/preview_C_4_1999_3_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 233 width pixels 250 1616279182277 1 image 1 media image reference media-196940 adlib-media-196940 12da2080-0691-3695-9325-28902d1a1d36 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_4_1999_1_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1616241821017 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_4_1999_1_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1616241821017 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_4_1999_1_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1616241821017 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_4_1999_1_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1616241821017 1 image 2 media image reference media-196941 adlib-media-196941 d1fc1002-b7e3-3f08-8fb6-18f16961fda1 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_4_1999_2_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1616279160074 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_4_1999_2_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1616279160074 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_4_1999_2_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1616279160074 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_4_1999_2_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1616279160074 1 image 3 media image reference media-196942 adlib-media-196942 4d08b815-dbcc-356b-b1b0-05ffb3a97159 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_4_1999_2_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1616253200133 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_4_1999_2_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1616253200133 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_4_1999_2_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1616253200133 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_4_1999_2_201605_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1616253200133 1 image 4 media image reference media-196943 adlib-media-196943 59f8cd95-a1e0-3f23-879a-2eb2b679f038 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_4_1999_3_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1616255642993 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_4_1999_3_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1616255642993 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_4_1999_3_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1616255642993 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_4_1999_3_201508_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1616255642993 1 image 5 media image reference term-2065 adlib-term-2065 a3f6127d-c82c-340b-8524-2c0635eda66d form object name reference term-109889 adlib-term-109889 9d2b434a-b03b-3dfa-8bb5-5d0ced5829c3 studio glass category history note Purchased by the donors from the maker at the Chelsea Craft Fair where exhibited 13th-18th October 1998 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Publ.
