"We welcome all kinds of experiments and the use of different kinds of materials and processes regardless of the artists background. We don’t use the term ‘glass artist,’ the people working in S12 are artists using glass as a material in one way or another."

Bergljot Jonsdottir
Director, S12 Studio & Gallery

"S12 offers a utopian vision that many dream of. It is a fantastic place where artists can experiment, create, and exhibit within the walls of a single location, with no pressure to commodify their efforts. With a studio in which you can try nearly anything and a space that welcomes the wild, the astounding, and the profound, S12 is indeed a very special place."

Justin Ginsberg
Artist

"Being in S12 as a manager of the workshop and as an artist in residence, gave me the opportunity to develop my knowledge of the physical and sensitive properties of glass. It became possible through my own experiments with the material and experience when helping other artists. Teaching and showing amateurs the basic processes when making glass was a rich experience for me as well. This work was an essential step, and allowed me to “abstract” the material and to access its nature."
