Produced using mouth-blown antique glass, bonded to industrial toughened glass, Art Glass Wall is one of two pieces architectural glass specialist Alexander Beleschenko has in the building.

He uses a variety of techniques and his beautiful glass wall dominating the underground entrance used a new process. Resin combined with enamel glass is poured to create swirling patterns and soft shapes.

Alexander Beleschenko was born in Corby, Northamptonshire in 1951.

In 1986 he established a glass studio in Swansea and here he creates his unique glass windows, walls and screens.
