Tessa Hill is a glass blower with 10 years experience. Her work is driven by reverence for the centuries-old Venetian technique of lamp-work glass, its ability to capture and transform light, and the fluid way that glass can mimic organic forms.

I enjoy combining dark and light elements in a piece to highlight the ongoing cycle of life. I always inject whimsy into my work. I aim to create works of art that are accessible to the many corners of our community, and bring joy and inspiration to the viewer."
