Shawn Athari is a renowned contemporary glass artist based in Los Angeles, CA. With over four decades of experience, Athari's original works are inspired by historical masks and forms, serving as historical markers of cultures that have long since vanished. Using a glass process known as fusing, Athari melts two or more layers together in a kiln at high temperatures, creating unique glass parts through pouring, blowing, and lamp work. His work is featured in numerous galleries and retailers, and has been recognized in magazines and television programs, showcasing his passion for cultural preservation and his ability to bridge the past with his contemporary style. Having started his glass career in 1974, Athari initially focused on creating glass panels for homes and furniture. In 1982, he ventured into fused glass and small blown objects, participating in art shows and selling his work. Over the years, Athari's talent and expertise have been widely acknowledged, winning first prizes and purchase prizes at various shows. He has also undertaken notable commissions, including creating glass panels for the Walt Disney Corporation and a synagogue in Thousand Oaks, CA. While considering a break from art shows to focus on his health, Athari's passion for glass art and his dedication to his craft remain unwavering.Generated from the website
