Order & Chaos, a stained glass folding screen, was inspired by Brian Clarke’s home in Notting Hill, a part of London occupied by red bricks and wisteria. As the artist noted in 2020:

‘I regularly move a variety of my stained glass screens around the house. This one is Order and Chaos from 2018. I enjoy the detailed etched layers of the wisteria brush strokes contrasting with the English red brick grid etched from ruby glass. Notting Hill is known for its remarkable number of old wisterias entirely covering the Georgian and Victorian terraces, winding through cast iron railings and across brick walls. Bricks and wisteria always appear together in my imagination.’

Using innovative technology, Clarke created this glass screen without the lead cames that traditionally structure and join stained glass panels. Order & Chaos exists in an edition of 10 unique variants plus 3 artist's proofs, published by HENI.
