In the stained glass screen Cherry Blossom, Brian Clarke utilises the technique of Pointillism in what Paul Greenhalgh calls a ‘breathtaking exercise in pinks’.

Greenhalgh describes the screens further in the 2020 catalogue Brian Clarke: The Art of Light:

‘The blooms are in the top six panels of the screen: the bottom three have a different naturalist vision, one in which thousands of small spots and marks create an even pattern across the surface. The effect is one of a dramatically enhanced Pointillism.’

Produced with an innovative technique that excludes the lead cames that traditionally support and join the panels of stained glass windows, coloured glass, installed within moveable frames, becoming autonomous and independent.

Cherry Blossom exists in an edition of 10 unique variants plus 3 artist's proofs, published by HENI.
