Glass Artist in Residence: Jason Christian

August 12-16, glass artist in residence Jason Christian will be spending time in the Greenfield Village Glass Shop collaborating with our artisans, creating unique objects that demonstrate his distinctive approach.
Jason Christian is a glass artist from the Seattle area. He became involved in glass art at the age of 21 — starting as a factory charger, slowly developing his glass knowledge through experience. He has worked with a variety of well-known artists in the Seattle community, including Martin Blank, Preston Singletary, James Mongrain and Nancy Callan.
For almost a decade he has been an integral member of Dale Chihuly’s boathouse team, collaborating and working with international artists, including Pino Signoretto. His individual work explores the art of reticello, classical Venetian techniques and modern simplicity. Recently, he has been developing art inspired by the works of Fabergé — combining the delicate complexity of reticello with the intricate detailing Fabergé eggs are known for.
