statement
Kristy Glass is a Michigan-based artist whose work centers around painted drawings. Through a sustainable approach, Glass creates minimal, surrealistic pieces using floating, pod-like forms as a powerful motif.
Using earth-friendly (recycled, non-toxic, biodegradable and plant based) materials, each artwork is a reflection of Glass' deep reverence for our planet and its diverse forms of life. In a world where the value of preserving our environment is ever-increasing, Glass' art serves to raise awareness and spark conversation about sustainability.
