The artists showcased in “Women Make Glass” are each expanding the possibilities for the medium through their diverse working styles, unique concepts, and versatile approaches to this fluid medium. The exhibition features blown glass, cast glass, engraving, and sandblasting, showcasing the depth and range of approaches in modern glass art. Many of the artists in "Women Make Glass" have developed new methods and techniques to bring their creative visions to life, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in this dynamic medium. Their works are deeply personal, reflecting the perspectives, ideas, and experiences of women working with glass today. Whether through bold sculptural techniques or intricate, delicate designs, each of these women has made glass distinctly their own.
