The Flow® Magazine

Volume 21 - Issue 3

The Flow® Fall 2023 is a feast for the Functional senses! Featuring our first Functional special in years, this issue is filled with innovative designs. The Gallery features the work of 13 flameworking artists showcasing different forms of functional glass, including wine stoppers, oil candle sculptures, rings, and smokeware. Imagery includes skulls, ocean life, abstract art, bees, teddy bears, and dragons. Glass Vegas brings us the winners of their 7th Annual World Series of Glass. The Flow writer Angie Rodgers covers the history and development of the Molten Art Classic, a collaborative event producing glass sculptures that push every boundary. The Corning Museum of Glass shares their 2nd annual functional collaboration featuring a breathtaking tree spirit and treehouse created by Laceface, Hickory, and Phil Siegel. Michael Weaver of KOBB Glass demonstrates a goblet with a fumed implosion stem and an opal inclusion. The Flow staff have written a short PSA alerting the glass community to recent social media scams that have been gaining traction. Steve Vaught and Geoff Madeley show us how to create a drinking glass using the encalmo technique, building sections separately then joining them in the flame. Joe Samuelson III talks to Josh Yunker of Yunk Glass, discussing the evolution of Yunk’s technique as he developed his distinctive style in the world of glass. Finally, Bob Harley Dawg demonstrates how to create a rainbow dichroic vac stack, which you’ll be able to use in this issue’s cup tutorials.
