Join us at the Corning Museum of Glass Amphitheater Hot Shop as we host glass artist Bri Chesler. Bri will work with our Hot Glass Team to bring her work in glass to life exploring concepts of beauty and desire.
Bri Chesler is an artist known for her innovative approach, blending various glass techniques with other media. She discovered her passion for glass while studying metal and foundry processes at the Kansas City Art Institute during her undergraduate studies. The sensual and organic aesthetic of glass resonated with Chesler in a way that metal did not. Drawing inspiration from her upbringing in the swamps of Florida, she incorporates the chaotic elements of nature into her art, fusing biology and botany to create forms that seduce and engage her audience. Chesler has received accolades such as being a 2019 Pilchuck Emerging Artist-in-Residence, a 2020 Hauberg Fellow, and a recipient of the Saxe Emerging Artist Award in 2021. In 2022, she taught as an instructor at Pilchuck Glass School and was featured in a solo exhibition, Untamed: The Anatomy of Desire, at the Center on Contemporary Arts in Seattle.
