Hannan gave us a quick tour of her studio and sand blasting equipment as she shared her unique carving process to making her delicate (but apparently not really fragile) sculptures. She shared her love of music and involvement in three music projects that have kept her busy and creatively energized during Covid.
And, of course, we bonded over mica!!
About the Artist:
Hannan Fayad is a glass artist working in a unique sculptural style. Her work highlights the diverse possibilities of glass with forms that delicately balance geometry, organic shapes and colour. The way natural forces of erosion transmute a surface and play with the symmetry of a form influence her compositions and carving technique. Fayad wears away the glass with a sandblaster to reveal an intricate structure.
HF Glass studio is located in the Old East Village in London, Ontario, alongside screen printers, ceramicists, and musicians.
