See new glass works from three Australian artists at Powerhouse Castle Hill created as part of the Willoughby Bequest Commissioning Program.

Scott Chaseling, Tim Edwards and Jennifer Kemarre Martiniello OAM created new works after receiving commissions through the program which honours Barry Willoughby, a Sydney-based collector of decorative arts.

Barry's passion was to support artists at the front end of contemporary practice and the program awards six $30,000 commissions to Australian glass and ceramic artists.

The Willoughby Bequest Commissioning Program was launched in 2020 and builds on one of the most significant bequests received by the Powerhouse.
