Glass artists Erika Kohr Island and Yorgen Kvinsland will give illustrated talks and discuss their work and processes on display in the Museum’s current exhibit, “Mastering the Molten: Mendocino County Art Glass.”
Highlighting contemporary art glass from master craftspeople throughout Mendocino County, this group show surveys the diversity of the medium. The featured artists use techniques ranging from kiln forming, cold work, sandblasting, and classic Venetian glassblowing, to computer-aided design and “painting” with molten glass. It includes Jeanette Carson’s lovely stained glass pieces inspired by nature; Sean Cramblett’s richly-colored and textured glass sculptures and wall art; Kale Haschak’s modern sculptural pieces, and blown glass using traditional Italian techniques; Scott Hegan’s delicate blown vessels and mille fiori work; Erika Kohr Island’s charming small-scale glass sculptures; Yorgen Kvinsland’s dynamic mixed media pieces; Cynthia Myer’s lyrical sand-carved art glass; Elizabeth Raybee’s eclectic glass mosaics; Ferd Thieriot’s compelling fragile glass sculpture; and Jonah Ward’s “drawings made with glass.”
