Bio:
Michael Harris (1933–1994) was a British glass artist and designer who played an important role in the development of modern studio glass. He founded Mdina Glass in Malta in 1968, where he developed distinctive glassmaking techniques incorporating vibrant colours, organic patterns and layered glass. In 1972, he returned to England and established Isle of Wight Studio Glass. His work is recognised for its experimental artistic expression and is highly sought after by collectors of European art glass today.
