Brian Clarke - artist, painter, a master of stained glass and mosaic, has a maquette I recently saw in his vast, London studio of a most impressive, immense sculpture you will be able to walk through - for the plaza in front of Renzo Piano's Shard at London Bridge. Huge sheets of glass, colour and wonderment await us!

In 1981, Brian was commissioned to design and fabricate a stained glass artwork for the Grade II-listed Jewell and Withers Building at 22 Endell Street in Covent Garden. Located on the corner of Endell Street and Betterton Street, the early Gothic Revival polychrome brick building was the former location of the Lavers and Barraud stained glass studio, designed by Jewell and Withers in 1859 for the notable Victorian glassworks. Part-funded by the Crafts Council of Great Britain, Clarke's modern stained glass gable window, located on the Betterton Street elevation and visible along much of Endell Street, fills what was the 19th century workshop's viewing window. The colour scheme was derived from Clarke's analysis of Lavers & Barraud's own colour palette, and the work was designed to be as striking by daylight viewed from outside – through its sculptural use of leading and triple-flashed opalescent glass – as from within, and to have a nocturnal presense, like a colourful beacon, when lit internally at night.

Brian Clarke's stunning stained glass canopy in the Victoria Quarter, Leeds, a blaze of colour to distract even the most jaded eyes from the bling of the shopfronts below.. The glass roof was added in 1989-90 to convert the former Queen Victoria Street into an arcade, adding an attractive blend of old and new to extend the shopping complex.
