Based in Portland, Oregon, glass artist Andy Paiko is recognized for his ambitious and technically skilled works.
Initially finding glass unexpectedly, it has now become a reflection of his personality. Almost alchemical in feel, each piece has a deep reverence for materiality and the traditional glassblowing techniques he was taught. Despite being known primarily for his larger installation work, Andy has a deep desire to reconnect to the joy of making functional crafts, therefore aligning him perfectly with Storied Objects' ethos.
With nearly three decades of hand-blowing glass, Paiko continues to limitlessly push the boundaries of his capabilities with glass.
