Kiln-forming as a technique to shape glass was in use for centuries before the Romans developed glassblowing. Today, modern glass artists are enjoying the versatility of kiln-forming and are using the technique to produce works of great beauty and strength. Under the elements features works from the National Art Glass Collection exploring this fascinating artform.
