Scott
Graham
and Cristy Aloysi began their glassblowing careers
at Urban Glass in New York City where they became fascinated with the
ancient process of glassmaking. The challenge of forming beautiful handmade
objects out of this molten material captivated them. While in New York
they became involved in the city's energetic art and design world and
have brought this influence into their work. After Urban Glass, they
went on to study at the Pilchuck Glass School, Haystack Mountain School
of Crafts, and Centro Studio Vetro in Venice, Italy. Scott and
Cristy have taught glassblowing at Urban Glass in Brooklyn, NY, Snow
Farm in Williamsburg, MA, Pratt Fine Arts Center in Seattle, and at
Maho Bay on St John in the US Virgin Islands.
In
2002 Scott and Cristy moved to Seattle
WA, the center of the American art glass movement, to create a line
of contemporary glass objects for the home. Their goal was to create
pieces that are unique in their clean lines and simple designs. The
beauty of Viscosity glass is that no two are exactly
the same. Each one has been carefully shaped by the hands of the artists
creating a uniqueness that cannot be imitated by any machine. Each
piece of Viscosity glass is made to order and signed
and dated by the artists. When you purchase Viscosity
glass you are supporting the 3000 year old tradition of glassmaking
and the American art glass movement. |
