MAG Gallery
Opening Reception at Summer Art Party
June 30 / 6-8pm
Joseph Alexander Ward, from Murray, Kentucky, found glassblowing through unconventional ways. Through music and sport, he has learned the tempo, discipline, and patience needed to work with hot glass; a demanding, ephemeral, and unforgiving art form. Ward received his formal education in glass blowing at Center College in Kentucky, where he became enamored with learning new techniques and letting processes inform his works. Ward has been a practicing artist and production glass blower for four years. His work is shown in galleries around Tennessee and the greater Appalachian area.
