Madeline Cardone lives and works on Ngunnawal traditional lands in Canberra, and is a graduate from the School of Art and Design, The Australian National University. Her practice is primarily sculptural, underpinned by references to archaeological, anatomical and architectural theory. Informed by her cultural heritage, she draws upon history, landscapes and memory as undertones in her practice in glass. Her sculptural forms frame the interplay of light and shadow, and invite a slow, tactile contemplation of materiality.


Cardone often refers to ‘glass as skin’ as a way of connecting space and bodily memory. This connection to the body is personal, and speaks of experiences being uncomfortable in one’s own skin, of taking up space, or surrendering to it. The glass veils the memory of form. It offers stillness, yet implies a state of constant flux. In this liminal state, the glass opens a dialogue, and evokes a strange familiarity—a sense of the corporeal, or a terrain—while shifting our understanding of what materials can hold, reflect, and become.


Cardone has exhibited nationally and internationally since 2017. She was awarded the Bassett Downs Honours Scholarship in Glass (ANU, 2021), the Vicki Torr Emerging Artist Prize (Ausglass, 2022), and the Aldo Bellini Acquisition Award for Milano Vetro Under-35 (Milan, 2024).







I acknowledge that I work on unceded Ngunnawal country, and pay my respects to its custodians and cultures, past and present.
