Biography
From the late 1970s, in workshops in Victoria and South Australia, Nick and Pauline Mount operated as manufacturers of hand blown production glass, working with both employees and trainees. One of Australia’s most experienced glassblowers, in the 1990s and 2000s Nick Mount has concentrated on making exhibition pieces such as his series of ‘Scent bottles’. He believes the future is in making best use of existing facilities like the glass workshop at JamFactory Contemporary Craft and Design, which he used to manage. He hires skilled blowers and leases time in the workshop, later assembling his pieces in his home studio in Adelaide. Mount also maintains an interest in production. For example in the mid-1990s he was commissioned to create a wine decanter for the Universal Wine Bar in Adelaide. Mount’s work was included in the 2007 exhibition 'Smart works: design and the handmade’ at the Powerhouse Museum.
