I create kiln-fused glass works for interior and public spaces using layered imagery, light, and architectural form. These pieces can live as backlit wall works, tabletop works, freestanding elements, window pieces, or custom installations developed for a specific site. The work begins in my image-based studio practice and is translated into glass in ways that allow light and scale to become part of the final experience.

For interior designers, art consultants, architects, hospitality teams, healthcare environments, and public commissioners.

Applications

Backlit wall-mounted works
Freestanding illuminated works
Tabletop illuminated pieces
Window and light-responsive installations
Interior divider and architectural feature concepts
Residential, hospitality, healthcare, corporate, and public settings

Selected Works and Concepts

Freestanding illuminated glass concept
A larger-scale concept showing how layered glass imagery and internal light can operate as an architectural focal point in a hospitality, residential, or public setting.

Wall-based illuminated glass concept
A vertical format designed to integrate with the language of an interior, functioning somewhere between artwork, light source, and architectural element.

Tabletop illuminated glass concept
A smaller-scale format that brings the same image-and-light relationship into a more intimate residential or collector setting.

Materials and Construction

These works are developed as illuminated laminated glass pieces using low-iron glass, layered imagery, and integrated LED systems. Current design studies include small tabletop, mid-size, and larger freestanding formats with steel base shells, framed support systems, removable illuminated caps, and access points for lighting maintenance. The aim is to create work that is visually strong, technically sound, and adaptable to a range of interior and public contexts.

Project Formats

Small tabletop format: visible glass surface 18" x 12".

Mid-size illuminated format: visible glass surface 38" x 24".

Larger freestanding format: illuminated laminated glass art sheet with integrated LED wiring and maintenance access in the base.

Commissions and Collaboration

I welcome conversations around scale, site, lighting, framing, and fabrication. Works may be adapted from existing imagery or developed specifically for a project and its architectural setting.

To discuss available work, commissions, renderings, or site-specific opportunities, please get in touch.
