Langley, who has created major glass sculptures in Australia, France, the US and Hong Kong says the demand for flashing lights and rainbow effects is an occupational hazard for artists working with light but he refuses to be drawn into the glitzy aesthetic. ‘It is a fine line between the casino and public art,’ Langley told the recent AusGlass Conference, where he was honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
