Paul Kimball

Fused, lampworked and blown glass

"I'm all about the joy of discovery.  Each work is an experiment, and each experiment is a new wonder. Nature is full of precious gifts, and glass is one of them: a material of near-infinite utility, versatility and beauty."

"Glass demands a range of artistic and engineering skills. As an artist, I play with the primitive powers of fire, time and gravity, but supplement these with the subtle and hard-won secrets of science. Glassworkers are called upon to be potters, metalworkers, chemists, physicists, bricklayers and engineers. To me, this blend of art and technology represents the pinnacle of human desire to create with one's entire heart and mind. "
