Mils Bridgewater/ Women Art

Mils Bridgewater is a London based fine artist who uses glass to communicate stories and social political views. Having grown up in a rural setting her work is influenced by place and present day attitudes to farming, values, waste and the environment.

Bridgewater continued her glass education with Scholarships to Pilchuck and Urban Glass in the USA and Bild-Wert in Germany. She spent three months in Stockholm at Konstfack University of the Arts on the RCA Anglo-Swedish Exchange Residency and Bridgewater held the post as the Glass Fellow at City and Guilds London art school for two years.
