Information / About
Pavilion Pavilion is a project initiated by artist Jack Brindley which seeks to explore the relationship between art and architecture.
Brindley holds a MA in painting from the Royal Collage of Art; and now works almost exclusively with ‘architectural-glass’ ( aka stained glass) as a means to explore the role of art within the contemporary built environment. ‘Art to live with, rather than art to look at’; Brindley’s stained glass work explores how we can be sensitive to the quality of light present and available in a space, and how we might enhance it with glass.
The Pavilion Pavilion studio is based in Edinburgh, Scotland and has delivered projects worldwide. The majority of our work are site specific commissions that employ a combination of both traditional and modern techniques. Thus bringing the irreplaceable beauty of handmade glass in line with the demands of current day building standards.

A Pavilion is often a temporary architecture, an exercise in style and ideology that gives shape to an idea. Pavilions have been used in world fairs and expos as a means to explore new advances in technology, art or science. Brindley is interested in how we can utilise glass to re imagine the contemporary language of architecture.
