About This Work
“Echoes is inspired by the frequencies of Pulsars (rapidly rotating neutron stars) and the frequencies from space. The colour's contrast and diffuse with the light and offer the viewer many intricacies to look at suggesting space, time and direction. The technique is Blown Glass Incalmo, Switched axis using threads of black glass and etched.”
Biography
Operating out of his glass studio in Dundas, Paull Rodrigue is a graduate of Sheridan College Institute’s Glass Program. Fluid colours and brilliant transparency highlight the sculptural forms of his work. An interplay of simple forms, his colours and rhythmic bubbles flow easily into each other, playing off the optic quality of the thick glass. Paull’s works are created using an Italian technique called ‘incalmo,’ where one piece of glass is welded to another to produce ribbons of light.
Paull has been featured in solo and group exhibitions across North America, making a significant mark in the Canadian contemporary art glass community with an unrivaled technical proficiency.

The City of Hamilton is situated on the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas. This land is covered by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which was an agreement between the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabek to share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. We further acknowledge this land is covered by the Between the Lakes Purchase 1792, between the Crown and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. Today, the City of Hamilton is home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island (North America) and we recognize we must do more to learn about the rich history of this land so we can better understand our roles as residents, neighbours, partners and caretakers.
