Welcome to our new Shop at SAAG Feature Artist!
Mad Fish Glass; Shauna Hayward
The Shop at SAAG is happy to present our current feature artist: Mad Fish Glass; Shauna Hayward.
Mad Fish was born when Shauna Hayward first saw glass beads being made during a Vacation to Nelson, B.C. Fascinated by the transformation of cold solid glass into a molten state, Hayward bought a book and a blowtorch and taught herself to make her own beads using an oxygen propane fuelled torch to melt rods of clear and coloured glass. Once in a molten state, the glass is shaped with tools and hand movements and fired in a kiln to give lasting strength to create one-of-a-kind pieces of wearable art.
