About The Artist

Heavily influenced by Africa where he designed and built luxury holiday homes for international clients and established a glass lighting studio and aluminium foundry.

Henri preferred to remain under the radar, predominantly specialising in bespoke items for Architects, Interior Decorators and Specialised Lighting Designers.

Occasionally, jointly exhibiting in quaint villages after having his arm bent by gallery owners – plenty of red dots were placed without fail on opening nights – his ‘art ‘ is scattered around the globe today on a small scale.

He has decided to take a small step into the public domain, here in the U.K. and initially with portraits, after building a 95 % recycled fully-fitted garden studio – man cave.

Glass Fusing Lessons

‘I plan to offer Glass Fusing Lessons to small groups – with a deep, earthly, organic African heart beat – hence the name Kgalagadi – and am presently creating unique one-off pieces, packed with past years gifts and talents, filled with new experiences and growing passion. ‘
