JOE PETERS
Joseph Quinn Peters (born November 25, 1983) is an American glass artist who specializes in the sculpture of natural life-forms. An avid scuba diver, Joe has been heavily influenced by wildlife and the natural world. His solo work and collaborations have been featured in galleries and
museums across the United States including Corning Museum Gallery, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Pismo Gallery, Hodgell Gallery, and Dane Gallery.
Born in Springfield Mass, Peters was active in the local art scene at a young age. While attending Holyoke Community College, Peters began glassblowing and later studied flameworking at Snow Farm, a craft school based in Williamsburg, MA. Peters later became established as a
flameworking teacher, teaching at Snow Farm, Corning Glass Museum, and the Penland Art School.
Peters attributes the greatest influence on his work to be from glass artists Robert Michelson and Vittorio Costantini, while he is most impressed by contemporary artists Buck and Banjo. Peters also draws on instruction from glass artists such as Robert Burch, Sally Prasch, Milon Townsend,
Robert Mickelsen, and Emilio Santini. In 2012, encouraged by growing international demand from private collectors and galleries, Peters created work that was increasingly inclusive of functional glass components. In order to be closer to the glass community and to do more collaborative
work, Peters relocated to Evergreen, CO., where he joined the Everdream Studio with other flameworkers, N8, Adam G, WJC, Elbo, and Eusheen. On his own and through collaborative engagements, Peters continues to create pieces for glass enthusiasts worldwide. Peters has created an
aquarium that is on display at the Boston Children's Hospital as of 2012.
