The process of glass blowing is really mesmerizing! Glass blowing is a unique technique that shapes molten glass into a bubble with the aid of a blowpipe.
Here's more information about the artists who do it:
1. In nearly fifteen years of working with glass as a medium, Josh Bernbaum has explored various techniques and design styles. He's most interested in color, especially color relationships in the designs he creates. In his glass work, made at his newly completed studio up on a hill in West Brattleboro, Vermont, he has utilized many methods of color application. All the coloration seen in his works is done with glass and colored glass, applied using various methods.
Since molten glass is such an unforgiving and challenging substance to tame and manipulate, it is a continual learning process for anyone who chooses to utilize it as a medium. He considers the pieces he makes to be documents along the way of a life-long journey - one which is about developing the necessary skills and patience needed in order to create things with this captivating and mesmerizing molten goo.
2. Rebecca Silverman is a 29-year-old glass blowing artist from
Detroit, Michigan. Glass blowing is her full time job and she loves it.
She has been doing glass blowing for six and a half years. After working in a glass shop in college, she just had to figure out a way to try it. So she found a shop that would let her work for trade, and it grew from there.
She has studied mostly on the job, but she has taken five week-long intensives at the Corning Museum of Glass, with many incredibly skilled artists.
In her art, Rebecca is inspired by nature, other artists, and the fluid movement of the glass. She took part in the Battle of the Glassblower’s in Kalamazoo, Michigan and won third place in one of the competitions!
Rebecca also teaches and trains new assistants at the studio she works for. She also teaches workshops for people who have never tried glassblowing before.
