Light Trap | Works from the National Art Glass Collection

Feb 28, 2026 to May 3, 2026 | Main Gallery

About

Light Trap adopts a radical approach to presenting works from the National Art Glass Collection.
Through an experimental use of harnessed artificial light and AV technologies, selected works are shifted away from their familiar, naturally lit settings and reimagined within darkened spaces. Internally illuminated, these pieces reveal new meanings and invite fresh responses.
