Artist Statement:
A. ADELAIDE ARTISTIC GLASS

Artist: Frans Kat
Throughout more than
twenty-eight years as a glass
artist, Frans Kat has been
working predominantly in
stained glass for residential,
commercial and architectural
settings.
These windows have often
incorporated the highly
specialised art of kiln-fired
glass painting and staining.
His strong interest in

Frans has been involved in
some of South Australia’s
major church window
restoration and conservation
projects, during his long
career.
He has glass works in many
private stained glass
collections Australia-wide, as
well as some in Belgium, The
Netherlands and Great Britain.
His recent interests also
include sculptural, fused
glass pieces, combining glass
and metal as well as
architectural etched glass
panels which include various
techniques such as painting
and lamination.
In the occassional pauses
between commissioned work,
Frans often designs and paints
small free-hanging
"autonomous" stained glass
windows which are ellaboratly
hand-painted, small scale
works which can be hung in
front of a window rather than
being installed into fixed
frames. In these pieces Frans
develops ...
