Jonathan Winfisky has been
designing and producing unique and original blown and cast
sculptural glass vessel forms since 1975. The
“Sculptural Design Series” and the “Shell
Bowl Series” are examples of forms, which are
designed and created using techniques that are thousands of
years old.
“My work is about groupings of objects---forms in a
series all designed to work collectively in relation to
each other, with an underlying design element which carries
a theme throughout the series. The individual piece is
important in and of itself, but it is the interrelationship
of these design elements and how they translate into
different forms, which interest me in my work. Glass is a
very sensuous and spontaneous medium.”
Winfisky is an artist who was drawn to the medium of hot
glass at an early age. He graduated from the University of
Massachusetts with a degree in glass sculpture in 1975. His
elegant pieces are known for and appreciated for their
jewel-like colors, sensuous forms, and simplicity of line.
His work has been featured in The Corning Museum of Glass.
The Corning New Glass Review, The Wheaton Museum of Glass,
and is shown in over 600 galleries nationwide, as well as
numerous prestigious public and private collections.
Each piece is a signed and dated original work of art glass
created in the setting of Winfisky’s renovated
100-year-old barn studio in the Berkshires of Western
Massachusetts.
