This project was conceived as a way to consider objecthood, preciousness, and material, as well as a way to connect glassmakers one to one and all as part of a larger collective. The glass object is infinitely recyclable, something specific to our medium, and though it continually changes, it is also, always, the same object. The project it not only mine - it belongs to all the glassmakers involved, as we connect, communicate, and exchange.
The Object is currently ongoing at Urban Glass in Brooklyn, NY. The object is transformed by a new artist each week. Up to date progress is posted below, and more information, with process photos can be found here.
