Story
It is with great sadness that the family of Edward Hill, announce his passing on August 26. As a young couple with small children, Edward and his wife worked in Greenwich for many years in Edward’s glassblowing studio on Creek Road. Passionate about nature, in the early 1990s Edward changed direction and concentrated on landscape art and later developed his photospheres – digitally manipulated images giving 360 degree views of specific and special places in nature or in the built environment. In 2012 the former glass workshop was transformed into Made in Greenwich, a gallery where local creatives could exhibit their work, or read their poems, or just have a chat (or a challenging debate). It became a true hub not just for artists, but for local people in general. Edward was also very active in local environmental issues and inspired many into taking them seriously.
