Tom Patti is a widely respected artist and studio glass pioneer who has devoted much of his career to researching different formulations of glasses and hot-forming techniques. He pioneered the exploration of industrial and architectural glass as a sculptural medium. Over the last 35 years, Patti has used glass to build and define spaces that transform surface, light and color, fusing layers of glass with bubbles and other spatial elements into unique works.
