Josh Simpson's glass platters, vessels and sculptures are celebrated internationally for their extraordinary, complex beauty. His imaginary landscapes of the seas, skies and heavens are compelling and enigmatic. They are also technical feats without parallel.
This book steps inside Simpson's studio and provides an intimate look at the inspirations, experiences and techniques Simpson uses to create his wondrous glass worlds. Readers will witness first-hand the drama of hot glass processes and learn many of the small technical secrets that elevate his art beyond the ordinary. Dazzling photographs of Simpson's work complement this behind-the-scenes glimpse into his creative genius.
Josh Simpson's remarkable blown glass is in the collections of more than twenty major museums around the world. His wife is astronaut Cady Coleman, whose space travels inspire much of his art.They live in Sherburne Falls, Massachusetts. Andrew Chaikin is the executive editor of Space.com and Space Illustrated magazine.
