ABOUT THE ARTIST
Oliver Doriss had the unique opportunity to experience the medium of glass at a young age, beginning his career as a glassblower in the studio environment at the age of 18.

His desire to realize his artistic visions has brought him to a range of glass studios both national and international. He has been a central figure in the Seattle Washington area glass community as well as working nationally in Glassblowing classes taught by the innumerable Davide Fuin. He is an instructor at M-Space Glassblowing Studio in Tacoma, Washington designing the yearly curriculum and teaches summer workshops Urban Glass in Brooklyn, New York. At the Museum of Glass and Contemporary Art in Tacoma he works intimately with the Hot Shop staff, as well as coordinating special events programming to generate evening glass demonstrations.
As an accomplished artist, Oliver has designed lighting and interiors for public spaces as well as private establishments. His creations exist in many personal collections nationwide.
