Sarah Porter

Fused Glass

294 The Queensway South, north entrance, Keswick

Sarah is a York Region artist who has been working infused glass since 2010. Her artist education has been both formal and experiential: she has had the good fortune to learn from glass Masters from around the world, as well as taken time for much personal trial and error. She loves learning new techniques in glass manipulation.

Her portfolio includes a wide selection of works including the wearable, the functional and the sculptural. Sarah presents her work at studio tours throughout the year, as well as in select galleries in Southern Ontario. “The scope of glass as a medium captivates me and has taken hold: colour, depth, light and shadow…. It’s irresistible! The transformational possibilities with kiln-forming are endless. And it’s as much a journey of self-exploration as it is an exploration of the materials. I find such joy in finding new ways to use heat and gravity to transform glass material in the kiln. The last few years have allowed me to revisit, combine and refine my skills. I appreciate being able to bring beauty into the world with each new creation. Glass is a reflection of me… and I am a reflection of my art!”
