Thursday Night: Pilchuck Artists

I personally found Erin Dickson to be the most fascinating of the artists there.  Erin Dickson is from England and she mainly works with architecture and glass.  She originally trained to be an architect at the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London before turning to glass at the University of Sunderland.  Dickson's work is a combination of her love for architecture and glass.  Formed Ideas of architectural phenomenology and digital technology she creates large scale sculptures which aim to inform the viewer of a particular time, place, space, or emotion.  Her inspiration comes from an emotional connection with architecture and her work itself contains a meaning of space.  Dickson recently got interested in the idea of playing with light.  She made a piece where she recreated a view from her window, "Window_2-2013".  Dickson viewed glass in a different direction, thinking about the intimacy of glass.
