Kiyomi Platter by Dan Buchanan

Powder printed glass, fused and slumped. "Powder Printing is an adaptation of screen printing techniques that replaces ink and paper with powdered glass and sheet glass. I begin by digitally manipulating images taken from the living world around me or from historical photos. Just like in traditional screen printing, each image is broken down into its constituent colors, screens are produced, and then placed above a layer of flat sheet glass. I create the image by forcing powdered colored glass through the screens onto the sheet glass, which becomes the canvas for the design. When fired in the kiln, the glass particles fuse together, and pieces can then be used as panels or set up over ceramic or metal forms and heated until they slump into a desired shape." -Dan Buchanan

I Made A Valentine For My Dentist!!!!! by Naz Khoury

This lace heart was cut from a larger length of second-hand vintage linen and embedded into a sculpted clay base. From there, I built a mold and casted it with several pounds of 96COE frit in a kiln at 1550 degrees. It is one of a series of playful experiments, but unique in both its fluoride coloring and foamy texture-perfect for a toothpaste commercial. A collection piece for your bathroom, perhaps a small reminder to brush your teeth twice a day! Naz is also part of the Pittsburgh Glass Center community, as a Tech Apprentice, an educational program that gives emerging glass artists professional studio experience while supporting the development of their own artistic practices.

Cirsium by Ellie Durham-Britton//Graphite Glassworks

Stained glass thistle, decorative soldering to make 3D thistle spears. About Graphite

The name Graphite Glassworks came to Ellie while trying to figure out how to represent their work in their name. Ellie loves drafting complex and precise geometric patterns using pencil, paper, and a good old-fashioned protractor, as well as incorporating natural geological materials such as agate slices into their pieces. Between their penchant for pencil drawings and their background in geology, Graphite felt like the best word to describe the combined elements of their work.

In both stained and fused glass, Ellie approaches the natural and the fantastical with an equal dose of whimsy and meticulousness. An instructor at the Pittsburgh Glass Center and emerging artist with the Craftsmen's Guild of Pittsburgh, their award-winning work is in conversation with environmental concerns such as global warming, invasive species, and climate resilience, as well as community organization and the universal tradition of oral folklore. Their pieces can be seen at various locations around Pittsburgh and have won awards at the 2024 and 2025 Delphi Art Glass Festivals, and their stained glass lantern, "Dusk," won Pittsburgh Glass Center's 2024 people's choice residency.

Concrete Cannon by Christopher Figueroa

This cast glass spray can was created to encapsulate the imagery I saw as a youth growing up in Los Angeles. Walking the streets of LA was like perusing a gallery of local artists every day, each indulging in painted imagery while employing their respective styles and techniques. Seeing these pieces as a child was my first exposure to art and my first spark of curiosity as a delinquent artist myself, so much so that I often regard my juvenile adventures tagging the city as my beginning in glass, over a decade before I found it. When I first started experimenting with cast glass as a glassblower, I knew I wanted to make a tribute to my beginnings in art, so I chose the tool from those beginnings as my focus. Glass flows and spreads, both akin to and yet wholly different from glass, so I wanted to enshrine that movement on the surface of the can, showing the similarities between the media. Concrete Cannon shows the unexpected first tool that informed my glass journey.

Heater Vessel by Matt Kolbrener

Matt Kolbrener's Heater Vessel brings an industrial sensibility to blown glass, transforming a functional form into a striking sculptural object. The vessel's vivid yellow color gives the piece an energetic presence, while its tall, cylindrical shape and rhythmic surface pattern evoke the coils and machinery that inspire Kolbrener's work. Drawing from Detroit's post-industrial landscape, Kolbrener uses custom steel tools to shape and texture hot glass, creating pieces that feel at once rugged, contemporary, and refined.

Inspire (Cherry) by Percy Echols II

Engraved and Blown glass, with metal stand.

This was the first piece (2017) in the series called "Inspire', featuring blown glass lungs, which began as an exercise in drawing on glass using engraving and carving techniques. In creating the lungs, an effortless fluidity and breath are required to give it shape and form. To balance these efforts, like its namesake, I let the process be my inspiration. Each drawing starts with a series lines that wrap around the piece. These lines are then used as guides to create an evolving pattern when viewed from multiple perspectives. While Design is the focus of the work, the labor reveals something beautiful when we can peel away the outer layers and see what lies beneath.

A New Hope: Boba Blue by Michael Janis

Cast glass bas relief, 8" x 8" x 2" A New Hope (Boba Blue) reimagines one of cinema's most ominous icons as something unexpectedly luminous, playful, and seductive. Cast in richly blue glass, the wall-mounted bas relief transforms the familiar Death Star imagery into an object of beauty -- less planet-destroying weapon than glowing retro-futurist artifact. Light moves through the dimensional surface, revealing shifting depth, subtle textures, and architectural detail embedded within the glass. Part of an ongoing pop-art collaboration with Chicago artist Tony Porto, the A New Hope series explores how cultural symbols can be reframed through material, color, and humor. Drawing loosely from the visual language of science-fiction relics and the iconic "frozen in carbonite" imagery of the Star Wars universe, the cast relief gives the object a preserved, almost excavated presence -- as though this symbol has been suspended in glass and rediscover

Blue Bolo Necklace by David Licata

Torch worked glass chain maille - borosilicate glass - blue sparkle.

Traditionally, Chain maille was used for protection by knights in battle but today it is mostly worn as jewelry. My work questions the idea of protection and finds beauty in the fragile forms. All of these works are created using torchworked borosilicate glass and various chain maille techniques. Experimenting with shapes, size and complex patterns allow for a diverse range of effects in light and shadow. Contradictions in strength and security are questioned with clear glass emitting strong and powerful shadows. Each piece is unique and changes with every installation or how it's worn on each individual.

This stunning piece was created using a copy of a real human skull as the base. Ornamentation was added and then a mold made. Initially the piece was cast with Bullseye Glass. Once it cooled the piece was then etched with acid and then coated with glass enamel paints. After the paints had dried the cast skull was heated back up in a kiln. When it reach the proper temp it was picked back up on a punty to be fired in a glory hole where any finishing touches were made.

Whiskey Mobius Vessel by Adam Kenney

The Whiskey Mobius Vessel is from a series of works that pays homage to the visionary Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi, whose minimalist forms and integration of materials have long inspired me. Brancusi challenges us to "not try to make materials speak our language; we must go with them to the point where others will understand their language." Like Brancusi, I strive to create harmony between mediums, merging them into singular, contemplative forms. These blown glass vessels, with their elevating bases turned from hardwoods and skins of silver foil, receive a subtly undulating lip created through engraving processes.

...Do...Part... by Lauren Kalman

...Do...Part... originates from an action where blown glass is distorted through being held or hugged by the body. The jewelry is left behind with the vessel along with the impression of the body. Once the vessels are distorted, they are not altered; oxidation of the metal, folds in the glass, and textures are all locked in place. These objects are markers of a specific moment and relationship between the body, jewelry, and vessel. They solidify that moment, much like the void of a victim of Pompeii left in the ash. In the glass vessels the body pulls away, but copper jewelry remains, with the face of the jewelry embedded in the clay and glass and the inside or back visible to the viewer. A bracelet that was around the wrist as the vessel was held is partially embedded in the surface with the remainder dangling off the side. An earring is pressed into the surface surrounded by the imprint of an absent ear.

Shattered, Still Beating by Libby's Tree

A vibrant cobalt heart appears caught between creation and collapse. One side remains whole and resilient, while the other eruates into a cloud of fractured glass, suspended in motion as if time itself has paused. Flecks of green emerge among the blue fragments, suggesting growth, healing, and life within the chaos.

Shattered, Still Beating explores the paradox of heartbreak and resilience, the way loss can scatter pieces of us without extinguishing our capacity to love, hope, and endure. The transparent glass allows light to pass through the work, reminding viewers that even in moments of fracture, beauty and strength can emerge from what remains.

"Not every broken heart stops beating. Some transform into something even more powerful."

After and Before by Courtney Tanner

"After and Before" is a series of candlestick holders created through the lost wax kiln casing process. Wax is cleaned and reclaimed from previous sculptures, melted, dripped, encased in plaster, and melted out once again before the negative space is filled with molten glass. The wax melted from the plaster mold is then reclaimed and used once again to create the next piece. The wax used to create these works lives in a perpetual cycle of being melted, shaped, and cleaned before it is casted and preserved in glass. Moments otherwise fleeting, now immortalized in a static state. When a new candlestick is placed in the holder and lit, new wax drips onto and interacts with the glass drips below.

Large Green Vase with Green Baubles by Gayle Foreman // Forman Function

An avid fan of frozen treats, I gravitate toward things that melt, spill, and generally make a mess. A self-proclaimed absurdist, I found my practice on imagination and play, sifting through frivolous and foolish events of daily life seeking moments of "eureka." I search for moments of "wiggle", when materials move beyond their boundaries. Though these fascinations take shape in a myriad of media, my research is informed by the material possibilities that glass provides. If glass can be s t r e t c h y and gooey then splinter in the following instant, perhaps foam could shatter or cardboard could inflate.

First encountering glass during high school at the Pittsburgh Glass Center, I received my BFA in Glass from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2014. Since then, I've continued to hone my expertise through professional work as an artist, educator, administrator, and fabricator. In 2019, I was a Fulbright U.S. Study & Research grantee in Sao Paulo, Brazil, researching gambiarra, a practice of creative and makeshift material reuse. This experience impacted my thinking and how I can further explore the experiences of daily life and the inevitable materials we use to construct it. Glass is a ubiquitous material, understood on some level by everyone, and I see this understanding begin to change when someone sees glass in its molten state. That moment of transformation or surprise is something that I attempt to capture throughout my work. From interaction and activation emerge fantastic new functions for ordinary objects or materials.

Although I am a weaver by trade I also enjoy quilting since you dont actually have to make the fabricsuch as in weaving.

The Found Specimen by Lindsy Marshall

The Found Specimen is an installation that highlights the connection between glass and geological transitions. The Found Specimen aims to focus on the changes within minerals and materials that create slow differences within shape, form, and appearance due to elemental shifts to show how important time and pressures are. This sculpture is created with both blown and kiln formed techniques and uses mica and enamels. I blown certain shapes to then use heat and time to create a movement within the finished piece.
