James Nowak – Glass

Colourful abstractions of flora and fauna characterise the glass work of American artist James Nowak.
His unique style is influenced by the sea, and he has worked closely with many of the America’s finest artists including Dale Chihuly, Ben Moore, and Dante Marioni. James’ style incorporates the best of the old European techniques with newly developed processes and materials such as dichoric glass, glow glass, photographic glass and fluorescent glass.
The incorporation of these new materials with traditional Murano techniques like Filligrane canes and murini segments gives the work a contemporary flair with classical roots.
