    Visual Artist: Glass
    Glassblowing is my life’s passion.  I am attracted to the mystical qualities of fluid glass.  It is truly challenging to manipulate and persuade a media that you can’t touch with your hands.  Instead I have to rely on different methods of shaping and forming the glass, such as wood blocks, wet newspaper, and gravity. I’m best known for my love experimenting with a variety of colors and glassblowing techniques. Some of my favorite work has copper foil embedded into the glass. The chemical reaction between the heat of the glass and the foil creates an amazing color palate. Another technique I love is adding baking soda to the glass, which makes for a “Bubblicious” creation.  Other new work includes hanging pendant lights and “Memories” paperweights, ornaments and other glass pieces into which the cremains of a loved one, human or pet, are enclosed into what becomes an everlasting memorial. I love the emotions that come over me while coaxing the hot glass and its color possibilities into a unique, beautiful piece of art.  With each piece I make, I try to pass on my passion for glass to the new owner.

    Catherine Dauphinais-Oba designs and creates unique, decorative and functional fused glass art.  Using the finest materials, she cuts the glass into a design which is assembled and fired twice in a kiln.  The first firing fuses the design into one piece of glass.  The second firing bends the glass into a shape.  The end result? a beautiful piece of fused glass art.  Given the nature of this hand-crafted art, no two pieces are ever the same, each piece having it’s own variations. Many designs are inspired by the natural beauty of Minnesota, but there are also several contemporary designs.

    Visual Artist: Glass
    Exhilarated by the demands of the process, Al enjoys meeting the challenges of timing and intuition required to manage fluid hot glass. In the studio, he states, “it’s important to stay in the moment, open to the ever-present opportunity to defy gravity.” Al prefers the “glass cowboy” tradition of design and production by a single maker. Form is his primary consideration; he often works with clear glass, focusing on surface reflections and interior views to create sculptural, functional pieces. The artist states: My first experience with glass was working with glaze formulas for ceramics, experimenting with canes and shards in handle reservoirs and on platters. In 1981, in the hot glass studio at St. Cloud State University, a second gather of glass found its way to the floor, puddling into a foot as I blew out the cup of my first goblet. Glass fever took over through the following years, looking out over the Mississippi River during midnight to 4am blow-times at the University of Minnesota, where I received a BFA in 1986. I served as a studio apprentice in Boulder, CO and in 1989, I moved to Whidbey Island, WA where over the next decade I met some of the world’s most incredible glassblowers, chaired the Artist’s Co-op and built my own studio. After returning to Minnesota, I started working at Foci-Minnesota Center for Glass Arts, where I just keep smilin’ no matter how much my dad still says I should quit blowing glass and get a real job.
