Label TextThrough the process of making objects, I am able to set parameters and make sense of space. —Steven Weinberg At a time when most Studio Glass artists were exploring blown glass sculptural forms, Steven Weinberg chose to experiment with kiln-casting and glass-cutting, creating Escher-like optical puzzles within cube forms. His works explore and analyze space while pushing the boundaries of glass as a material.
