Amber Cowan | Alchemy of Adornment

Cowan uses centuries-old flameworking, hot sculpting, and glassblowing techniques to transform pressed glass into exuberantly adorned diorama-like wall installations and free-standing sculptures. Her dense narrative assemblages are often personal and lure viewers into fantasy worlds rich with symbolism and themes of transformation, femininity, and nostalgia. On display in the Museum of American Glass from April 1 through December 31, 2023.  LEARN MORE
