• Overview
    "Created entirely out of molten glass at over 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, each artwork is hand-sculpted with steel, paper, and wooden tools."

    Dylan Martinez earned his MFA in Glass at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana. He has studied with master craftsman across the U.S. and abroad. His artwork is regularly exhibited throughout the US and internationally. Dylan’s artwork is held in several international public and private collections, most notably, the Imagine Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. Martinez has been featured in several publications such as Colossal, Elle Decoration, American Craft Magazine, Interior Design Magazine. Dylan designs and creates all his work by hand in his studio in Bingen, Washington.

    Dylan’s artwork often examines the boundaries of human perception. His work challenges the viewer’s expectations through the manipulation of light, space, and the optical properties of glass. While steeped in the traditional techniques in glass making, he constantly strives to discover novel approaches to exploit the material. His hyper-realistic water bag sculptures often trick viewers into believing the glass objects are in fact water filled plastic bags. With his latest series, Dylan introduces color into his work for the first time in a few years with his solid sculpted Pac-Man inspired ghosts that lure the viewer in with their simplistic design and ethereal luminosity.
