    Welcome back! It's Season 4 of Cracked! Today to kick it off I'm joined by Brooklyn based glass artist Sacha Carlos-Raps! She is a Filipina immigrant and not only makes beautiful glass work full of bright colors but also does printmaking and illustrations. Her art practice is "her rebellious demonstration against the good immigrant binary and the post-diasporic expectations of “first gens” Her work is memoriric totems that embraces the kaleidoscopic inner self, an ode to the abode and the absurd."Today we talk glasswork of course but we're also going to talk about markets, candles, get into the making of her zine, her Oaxacan residency and then we wind it back down with some fun Phillipino facts. Let's get into it...Join me as I crack it all wide open!To see more of Sacha's work, her instagram is @sacharaps and her website is sacharaps.com. For the Cracked Patreon members Sacha is gifting one of her super popular shrimp sun catchers.  I'll be doing a raffle for that 12 days after the release of this episode. She's also offering a $20 discount code to  the rest of the Cracked Patreon members and remember Sasha sells much more on her website other than glass pieces. I just ordered myself some an array of her gift cards and they're so cute!

    Hellooooo and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss! Today's guest is Jax Partlow. Jax Partlow is a glass artist based in Los Angeles. While formally trained in graphic design, Jax prefers the longevity and physical aspects that glasswork affords her, as well as a very tangible connection with her late father. It was only after she was left his tools that she gravitated toward the craft while living in Hungary. Thoughtful, romantic and functional, stained glass fulfills a creative desire for Jax as an artist, while meeting her designer side with its utilitarian appeal. She is most recognized for her Public Piece Project in which she installs her art in unlikely spaces. It's my favorite. It's so smart and cool and she's my absolute favorite street artist. Jax's work has been featured in Stained Glass Magazine, The Corning Museum of Glass: New Glass Review 2022 and by her own accord in the streets of Los Angeles.Let's get into it.Join me as I crack it wide open!Watch Jax and I here: https://youtu.be/dCer2e0t8r8Kintsugi wikipedia.orgLarry Bellguggenheim.orgEgon Schiele “Mother and Child”wikiart.orgLeopold Museum in Vienna leopoldmuseum.orgHelen Frankenthalerfrankenthalerfoundation.orgEtel Adnaneteladnan.comWillem de Kooningdekooning.org Elaine Marie Catherine de Kooningwikipedia.orgQuinn Gilmer@mdrnwldngPaul Lozano@compasssssionSzápör Klub@szaporklubBad BunnyJax's Bad Bunny Songs Playlist

    Today's guests are the dynamic duo Nadine Keegan and Tom Medicus. I was able to catch them both at the same time while Nadine is visiting Tom's studio in Austria. Although their work is strikingly different, they both have done a brilliant job bringing meaningful topics and statements into their work. Keep listening and you'll agree! Join me as I crack it wide open... Nadine: After spending 3 years studying fine art photography at RMIT and PIC, she became disillusioned with the orthodox methods of image making and work style of a fine art photographer.  A few years past and many less artistic pursuits were explored when, with a visit to the solar-punk stained glass mural Cosmovitrial in Toluca, Mexico she finally discovered the creative industry which aligned with her ideals. While realizing the potential that exists within the craft that I had not yet seen in Australia.  Solidifying her obsession with research into the stained glass window's development through the 20th century, with the manifestations of the Arts and Crafts anti-industrialisation ideals embedded in it's design and construction.  Through her work, she celebrates both the legacy of the craft laid out before her and the potentiality of the materials when manipulated with a contemporary perspective and up-to-date technology. Her experience includes custom stained glass fabrication, heritage restoration, architectural glass work and exhibition works. To see more of Nadine's work, her instagram is @nadinekeegan. Tom: Thomas Medicus is a visual artist based in Innsbruck, Austria. Best known for his anamorphic cubes he also works in other fields such as illustration, animation, digital art, stained glass, restoration and conservation as well as public art. He studied social work at MCI Innsbruck before attending the Glasfachschule Kramsach, a school for glass art, where he earned a master glaziers degree later. In addition to his independent activity as a freelance artist, he was employed in the long-standing firm for stained glass windows Tiroler Glasmalerei for seven years. From the beginning of 2021 he became completely independent and founded his company Studio Medicus. To see more of Tom's work, his instagram is @tomedicus.

She is the 2nd person in the world – and the first woman – to receive a Master's Degree in Stained Glass Conservation from the Royal College of Art in London. Equally comfortable on a job site, at a board meeting or in a museum, Makau has over 25 years of experience with art and architectural preservation.  She is a Board Member and Health and Safety Chair of the SGAA and is a Fellow of AIC. Before Nzilani, she worked at the J. Paul Getty Museum in LA, London's V&A Museum, and the NY  Metropolitan Museum of Art.  Approachable and non-judgmental, Ariana enjoys sharing her professional experience in classroom and public talks.  I could have spoken to Ariana for 2 more hrs and still only scratched the surface of her extensive experience and knowledge of glass conservation and preservation. Asbestos testing /Respirator fit tests-Ariana recommends you do a local search with the key words "asbestos material testing company" and "respirator fit tests".  In some cases, people might be able to get the latter sourced through a museum.  Local paint companies sometimes teach one day lead certification classes as well."Nzilani is hoping to roll out hosting contracted respirator fit and BLL testing next year as a service to local artists.

In her free time she's an incredible stained glass artist. She's actually one of the many great talents coming out of Dan Grimaldi's shop in San Francisco called Cradle of the Sun. Truth be told I had a really hard time naming this episode because we cover everything from her love and appreciation for Cup Noodle, the meaning of being a hobbyist and even Miss Piggie at a rave in Berlin in 1992. Or as a yogi cult guru. Wait what? You'll have to keep listening to find out what I mean…Join me as I crack it all wide open!!

    Hello all and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss!Today's guest for episode 35 is Los Angeles artist Timo Fahler. Timo uses plaster, ceramics, steel, wood, and found objects to construct highly visual and culturally significant works. Combining formal elements of sculpture with references to his heritage, Fahler's work explores ideas of use and reuse through casting and manipulating found objects and combining them with relics that relate to personal experiences. His restructuring of objects in a manner that indicates function and meaning while remaining abstract in form, invokes a bricoleurian practice, representative of a multi-cultural aesthetic. Alright let's get into it with Timo…Join me, as I crack it all wide open! To see more of Timo's work, his instagram Is @team-oh and his website is timofahlerarchive.com.For the Cracked Patreon page members Timo is offering the pattern for "Kala Chromium Aestus" made recently at his Bedstuy Art Residency.Get into it at Patreon.com/runaglassworks.Honorable mentions from this episode:The Last Judgement - the flayed skin of Michelangelo italian-renaissance-art.com/Last-JudgementThe 3 pieces I asked Timo about:timofahlerarchive.comtimofahlerarchive.comtimofahlerarchive.comFavorite artists:Rafa Esparszacommonwealthandcouncil.comBeatrice Cortezbeatrizcortez.comDaniel Gibsondanielgibsonart.comHannah Levy hannahslevy.comFin Simonettifinsimonetti.comBea Fremderman beafremderman.comMolly's magic glass@mollysmagickglassMary Weatherford wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_WeatherfordFor episodic sponsorship opportunities please email hello@runaglassworks.com.Support the showThank you to this episode's sponsor:Canfield Technologies Canfield sets the standard for the Stained Glass industry.

     Trained as an architect, Josephine A. Geiger's glass art is inspired by hidden depths in the landscape. These scenes are distilled into a bold palette of rectangles and squares of colored light as she translates a photo or sketch with an Impressionistic eye, capturing the essence of the subject. Josephine's process is organically linear, adding, shifting, flipping, or removing glass elements until the visual puzzle is finally solved — often in surprising ways.In addition to a steady stream of private commissions (even a chicken coop), Josephine's artwork is represented in various installations and public collections. Josephine also recently created and installed an original skylight on the Frank Lloyd Wright Lovness Estate in Minnesota. Her distinctive style has earned multiple awards and has been featured in both regional and national print publications, as well as TV episodes on TPT's MN Original and INSP's Handcrafted America.Josephine's instagram is @jageigerstudio and website is jageigerstudio.com. For the Cracked Patreon members she is giving away a fused Holiday ornament as well as one of her new 2023 Calendars.

    As you know, at the end of all my episode's I always ask my guest what their 5-10 year goals are. It's been interesting…majority of the time, artists that are known for making smaller pieces say they would like to make larger pieces and get into more installation work and artists that make larger pieces say they would like to come back to making the smaller pieces they started with. Like many of you I usually make smaller pieces that don't require much more than some sturdy hooks to install. But I too have been wanting to grow and expand into doing something bigger.That opportunity came! I just finished my first commercial installation and as I made my way through the project there were a lot of steps that were new to me. I was very lucky to have a mentor helping me through the process. A very talented and experienced artist, Ted Ellison from Theodore Ellison Designs, based in Oakland. His first episode of Cracked was released October 5th 2021, episode 5, Season 1.I asked Ted if he would be open to come back on with me and co-host an episode recapping my experience and together we could pass on the advice and guidance he had given me.Join us as we crack it all wide open!To see more of Ted's work, his instagram is @theodoreellisondesigns and mine is @runaglassworks.Honorable mentions from this episode:Unishippers (LTL):go.unishippers.comT shaped  furniture mending plates:https://amzn.to/37ZLUvtLink to digital downloads:runaglassworks.com/shop Canfield Technologies Canfield sets the standard for the Stained Glass industry.

    In 1897, The Judson Studios was established in Los Angeles by the painter and professor William Lees Judson and his three sons. Helmed by Walter Horace, the eldest son and a stained glass expert, the Studios thrived from the start, beautifying the booming metropolis with works that represented the best in traditional and modern design. Today, Judson is the oldest family-run stained glass studio in America, still proudly offering an exquisite, handcrafted product made by local artisans, and continuing to serve the community that has sustained us through the decades. Today I'm speaking with David Judson. He's been working hard to grow and stretch his family business into exciting new territories and  has recently released Judson: Innovation in Stained Glass , a book to document the nearly 125-year history of Judson Studios. We're going to chat about that, as well as the power of collaboration, current and future projects happening at Judson and the unique impact and legacy David would like to leave with the industry. Join me as I crack it all wide open!To see more of the work coming out of Judson Studios, their instagram is @judsonstudios and their website is judsonstudios.com.Honorable mentions from this episode:Where to find the book:"JUDSON: Innovation in Stained Glass"judsonstudios.com/product(There's a 20% discount available to the Cracked Patreon members!

    Today I'm speaking with Lauren Puckett. She's an artist with an adventurous spirit and a love of flying airplanes. She just recently returned to the states from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland where she was working on her PhD in glass and now, she's currently in a residency at the McColl Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. The sky's the limit for this artist and pilot, but where she's currently gaining altitude is by intertwining feminine studies with glass in an unexpected and seamless way. Her pieces examine subculture, stereotypes and representation with contemporary power structures. Her work is powerful and thought provoking, and creates the start of conversations that need to be had. Everything she's doing will make a lasting impression, her efforts to modernize our traditional practice with her C&C plasma framing system included. It's the spark to a flame that may make the future of stained glass more safe and therefore more accessible.

There are no dyes involved in glass colors, the glass is all melted from raw materials in weight proportions just like a recipe; this mix is called 'batch' and generally includes compounds + raw materials that add color (copper, tin, cobalt, gold, etc.)  So that's true for basically all the glass we use for stained glass, and the toxicity isn't really different between the colors - the most toxic part of the process is when the materials are being mixed and the furnaces are being charged as it's a lot of toxic airborne particles floating around. There are issues with emissions from the melting of the materials, but that's typically stuff that can be solved with how the factory is built - although this problem has greatly changed our industry in the US because some of our factories were in the middle of now-thriving cities.  What makes pinks so expensive though is that they burn out way faster than blues & greens - meaning if you melt an entire furnace of a gold-pink glass, you can only use some portion of it before the color burns out, pinks being the shortest of all the colors. Since these colors are meant to be replicable, when the color starts to burn out and doesn't match the color standard, the glass has to be used for something else, or this is what sometimes becomes limited runs."TY Leslie Green of @bespokeglass for this info!The Stained Glass Association of America The Professional Trade Association for Architectural Art GlassSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/runaglassworks)
