Joseph Cavalieri has been working in glass as a fine art
form since 1997.
His work has been exhibited in galleries and museums all over the
world. His aim is to
transform the medium of stained glass, using it to tell modern stories
that reach out past
the traditional religious storytelling idiom, immortalizing the new
folklore and
traditions being established in our lifetime.
The techniques involved in creating these pieces date
back to medieval
times.
Each piece of glass is hand cut and painted, then kiln-fired to
1250 degrees,
melting the paint permanently onto the glass. It is then
soldered and
placed in a wall mounted light box.
