Robert Burch
Knots (blown glass found object climbing rope wall sculpture Chihuly)

2023

About the Item

This piece weaves climbing rope in with glass knots. Each piece is unique and slightly different. The cord is retired climbing rope, given another use by shining in this piece. Robert Burch began working with glass in Atlanta, Georgia while still in high school. After graduating, he worked for the Japanese glassblower, Tadashi Torii for two years. Shortly after, he attended Pilchuck Glass School before deciding to make the jump to the mecca of glass working, Seattle, Washington. It was there that Burch had the honor of working with the renown American glass artist, Martin Blank. In the span of five years, Burch learned many aspects of glass artistry as he worked for Blank. Subsequently, the team collaborated on color design teams for the glass empire company Chihuly Inc. During all these glass adventures, he never stopped shooting photos, drawing, and exploring different materials.

  • Fumble Fingers
    By Casey Whittier
    Located in Kansas City, MO
    Artist : Casey Whittier Title : Fumble Fingers Materials : Earthenware, mason stains, enamel, microbeads Date : 2017 Dimensions : 16 in x 16 in x 4 in Description : ceramic sculpture with chainmail base Casey Whittier received her BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute and MFA from the University of Colorado Boulder. Her work investigates the fine line between the need to preserve and a desire to re-imagine, re-configure and re-contextualize the world around her. Utilizing a variety of forming methods and clay bodies, Whittier recreates elements from nature, unites the landscapes of her reality with the landscapes of daydreams, exploits the visceral qualities of clay, and ponders the power of shared experience. Through shifts in material, Whittier makes space for metaphorical possibilities to rise to the surface. An exploration of touch and intuitive making is deeply embedded in her studio practice and community-based projects.
