Maker Faire Bay Area 2025
Social Networking Project
Home: California, United States
The Social Networking Project consists of glass sculpture pieces created through live demonstrations, fostering community collaboration and meaningful connections. Using flameworking techniques with borosilicate rods, I begin by establishing a sturdy base structure. Precut glass rods of various sizes and lengths are made available to participants, who, after signing a safety waiver, can choose a piece to contribute. Wearing safety glasses, participants are invited to position their chosen rods on the structure as they see fit. I then carefully fuse the glass rods to the base, with each participant contributing within approximately three minutes. During this interactive art-making experience, I engage with the community, learning their names, discussing their familiarity with glass or art, and sharing in the joy they experience by contributing to this collective artwork. Upon completion, I offer to capture a Polaroid picture of each participant next to the finished piece, documenting

I'm at a pivotal moment in my career, fueled by a lifelong passion for glass, architecture, and design. I'm deeply drawn to the way glass captures light and form, how it bridges fragility and strength, transparency and structure. My work is about exploring these tensions creating pieces that are as much about connection and presence as they are about material. I'm driven by a desire to build, to shape ideas into tangible form, and to push the boundaries of what glass can express.
Each project is an opportunity to merge aesthetics with intention, to craft something that resonates beyond itself. More than ever, I feel ready to devote my full energy to this pursuit, turning years of vision into work that speaks boldly and directly to our shared human experience.
