Jamie Katz is a San Diego based glass artist and

between fragility and permanence, precision and

spontaneity.

Institute of Technology and has exhibited

internationally, including at Glasmuseet Ebeltoft

in Denmark and numerous institutions across the

U.S. In addition to maintaining an active studio
