Jonathan Cooke

Jonathan Cooke is an ICON-accredited stained glass restorer. He began his career as an apprentice at York Minster and has had the privilege of interrogating stained glass of all dates; for his restoration work he has researched historic materials, recipes and techniques, which inform his own, unique stained glass art. Made to commission and for exhibitions, sometimes simply "because an idea won't go away" Jonathan's stained glass pieces are both traditional and highly original, employing a repertoire of glass - painting techniques from the conventional to the experimental, resulting in idiosyncratic narrative pieces, usually small-scale, often intricately detailed panels, which address the human condition.
