Jarred Wright

Jarred Wright has been producing object art for over 25 years around the world and is currently working as a scientific glass blower in the chemistry, nano-technology and microbiology industry based In Brisbane, Australia.

He is influenced by the organic forms that arise in the imperceptible microcosm of nature and how the amorphous solid/fluid that is molten glass can accurately portray it.

Breathing life into the glass, pushing and pulling with subtle movements – creates shapes and forms that mimics microscopic organisms in a process that blurs creation and evolution, liquification and crystallization, animated movement of molten glass cooling to be frozen in time culminating in an amoebic small scale sculpture.

His work is an artistic and contemporary reinterpretation of the medium of glass, staying true to the material while exploring its ability to form three dimensional replications of the visceral design found in microbiology, science and nature.
