In my work I explore the limitless potential of sculpting with plate and chiseled glass. I combine traditional tools of stone sculpting with technological innovations. The resulting forms, geometrical but also natural, appear light and ethereal despite their weight.
Artist Henry Richardson (b. 1961) innovated a method of chiseling and bonding enormous sheets of plate glass into monumental, yet ethereal, crystalline forms, a method which he continues to refine. He attended Haverford College where he studied geology and art. This background in both art and science informs his creative process and mastery of chiseling glass, an industrial material not often explored artistically. Richardson divides his time between New York City and a studio in Tyringham, MA in the Berkshires.
