Raven Skyriver: Oceanic Exhibit Catalog

Raven Skyriver (Tlingit/Makah) returns to Stonington for a third solo exhibition with a new, audacious body of glass artwork. Skyriver’s realistic glass sculptures will focus on the aquatic life of the Puget Sound area, highlighting creatures such as salmon, whales, octopuses and seals. Using foil to connote the iridescent scales on a salmon’s skin, or coaxing the shape of a fin out of molten glass, Skyriver’s technique continues to develop and astound.

This ambitious young glass maestro won the coveted Artist’s Choice Award and Audience Choice Awards at the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, WA during 2012, further cementing his place in the highest echelon of glass art. Skyriver has worked with William Morris, Lino Tagliapietra, Karen Willenbrink-Johnsen and Martin Janecky, and currently collaborates on projects with artists such as Marvin Oliver and Kelly O’Dell.
