About
Materials. Light. Space. Scale. Environment. Texture. Mood.
I am an artist/designer making work for interior spaces. Working mostly with glass, I am continually exploring the relationship between it and light. I am also interested in the relationship between materials and specifically how glass can be paired with other materials. What you will find here are objects and prints for interior spaces (mostly). Offering pieces from small tabletop objects to larger wall installations, and custom hand-silvered mirrors I try to make work that moves between functional, decorative, and sculptural. I work with stores of all sizes, interior designers, and individuals. Wholesale orders, custom orders, commissions, or questions: email me for info palmer8@mac.com
I hold a degree in sculpture and art education and am interested in the places where art, craft, design, manufacturing and communication intersect. In addition to selling my work nationally and internationally I have worked in various roles with non-profits, glass manufacturers, arts professionals, and schools.
