Description
Ghost, a flame-working artist based in Chicagoland, has immersed himself in the captivating world of glass for over two decades. Inspired by the mysterious and macabre, his creations range from aliens and zombies to skulls and demons, exploring the darker facets of artistic expression.
With a rich background in both art and music, Ghost's journey took diverse paths, including years as a tattoo artist and a stint in a recording studio as an engineer and producer. His introduction to glass art was serendipitous, and he embraced the chaotic medium, teaching himself the intricacies of flame working.
Initially crafting pipes and hitters for a start-up production company, Ghost transitioned into the realm of sculptural art. In 2003, he boldly ventured beyond production pipes, creating an iconic piece — an alien cradling a planet. This sculpture, seamlessly blending functionality with artistic expression, became a fixture in the pipe community, replicated far and wide.
Ghost's work stands as a testament to his artistic evolution and mastery of glass as a medium. His contributions to the pipe world have left an indelible mark, with his signature alien sculpture enduring as a staple in pipe shops across America.
