About The Artwork

This spectacular blown glass vessel from the artist's Foglio series is created using the challenging murrine technique. The vibrant colors and intricate detail are hallmarks of Patchen's masterful glasswork. Patchen uses both hot and cold glassworking processes to create hundreds of patterned glass tiles, composes them into a mosaic, then fuses them together and begins the blowing process. This piece features murrini with thousands of precise gold and white threads set in a saturated field of cerulean blue. This sizable sculpture has great presence and a sleek, flattened profile. It is double-encased in clear glass for depth, optics, and stability.

David Patchen is internationally known for his colorful and intricate blown and hot-sculpted glass created with meticulous craftsmanship and detail. His mastery of the murrine and cane patterning techniques and use of vibrant colors results in large-scale work that is exciting and precise. For two decades David's creative energies primarily found an outlet in music, but a blowpipe and furnace have replaced his guitar and amp. A former corporate marketing professional, a glassblowing class in 2001 ignited such a passion that he transitioned his career from technology to full-time glass artist. David's work is shown internationally at galleries and shows including SOFA Chicago, ART Shanghai and COLLECT London. David has been guest artist at the Corning Museum of Glass, Artist in Residence in Seto City, Japan and demonstrated at multiple times at the Glass Art Society's annual conferences. Primarily self-taught, David grew his skills through experimentation informed by observing local artists and a few brief visits with Afro Celotto, maestro and former assistant to Lino Tagliapietra from Murano, Italy. His book David Patchen, Glass is in the permanent collection of the Rakow Library at the Corning Museum of Glass and the Fondazione Giorgio Cini, Centro Studi del Vetro (Glass Study Center Library) in Venice, Italy. David is actively involved in the glass arts community as Chairman Emeritus of the Board of Directors at Public Glass (San Francisco's center for glass art) and formerly on the Pilchuck Leadership Council and Board of Directors, Glass Alliance of Northern California. David maintains a private studio within Public Glass where he creates his work. He enjoys and finds inspiration in international travel, the marine environment, science, nature and architecture. David's work is in numerous private collections, museums and is exhibited internationally. Born and raised in New York, David Patchen now resides in the San Francisco Bay area.
