Counterclockwise Studios is a small studio run by Sarah Gilbert primarily focusing on glass and metal fabrication. Originally from Rochester, NY Sarah began working with glass in 2000 and received her BFA from the Rochester Institute of Technology in 2005. She moved out to the Pacific Northwest in 2006 to work as part of the Museum of Glass Hot Shop team in Tacoma. She has been there ever since assisting many different artists from around the world in making their own work. Primarily using glass in her own work she attempts to use the inherent qualities of glass to communicate a narrative. She truly enjoys the process of making, through which she sorts through and documents the stories of daily life. She has shown work around the country and was recently a Hauberg Fellow at the Pilchuck Glass School. Please feel free to contact me at stellamae55[AT]gmail[DOT]com
