How modern stained glass bridges the gap between ancient craft and digital design
In short: Melbourne-based artist Jordan Bueno is reimagining a centuries-old medium. This video explores how contemporary creators navigate traditional techniques to produce modern narratives, from whimsical subjects to nightlife scenes.
