BIO

Dany Green (b. 1994, Ambler PA) is a self-taught abstract glass artist living in Baltimore, MD. Her approach, developed outside traditional mosaic training, allowed her to forge an avant-garde technique she calls "glass painting."

ARTIST STATEMENT

My process begins with a single glass shard adhered to the substrate; each subsequent piece placed in response to the previous one. It becomes a dance between the static material and myself as I push for fluidity. I paint with glass. Glass is dynamic in its elusiveness, responding to the environment and the viewer’s perspective. Each piece is an attempt to grasp the intangible: light. I break things and put them back together again, intending to strike a balance between order and chaos. It is in that liminal space that the transcendent becomes possible.
