Entry Description

To celebrate the ten-year anniversary of the Toledo Museum of Art's Glass Pavilion, the Toledo Museum of Art Glass Studio produced a collection of studio glass inspired by the landmark building. The three objects in the collection play on the unique use of glass as a dialogue between interior and exterior space, which is found throughout the SANAA-designed glass building. Each object is hand made in the traditional off-hand glass blowing technique by lead designer and gaffer Alan Iwamura.
