Conservation of Glass and Health with Derek Hunt

Cracked with Chevonne Ariss

Hello and welcome back to Cracked SEASON 3.
To kick this season off I’m joined by Derek Hunt. He does it all…
Not only reputable and respected conservation work, but also beautiful and thoughtful new glass work for public buildings, schools, theaters, restaurants, libraries and hospitals. His work can be seen through out the United Kingdom and beyond. He's also one of the warmest people I've had the honor of interviewing and another example of someone who is impressively generous with his extensive knowledge of all things glass. As you'll hear him explain in our chat today, like many, the pandemic forced him to expand professionally and for him that meant taking on the challenge of making quality content for his social media channels, Especially youtube. There he share's free online tutorials, inspirational videos and artist interviews.

With some editing magic done by Derek this interview will also be viewable on Derek’s as well as my YouTube channel and a link to watch that is in this episode’s show notes.

When I put the call out on instagram for questions for Derek, listener @glassyem responded “No questions but I think I’m most excited for this episode release! I’m a Derek Superfan!” Em I couldn’t agree more. So let's get into it.

Join me, as I crack it all wide open…
