Glass By Sabina

Sabina Boehm’s natural talent has always drawn her to the arts. As Seattle’s Borosilicate art glass movement was just starting to gain momentum, in 1994, she secured an apprenticeship. Then used those early years gaining knowledge through observation, practice, classes and networking. In the late 1990’s, Sabina started a cooperative glass studio. She later worked with Momka’s Glass Company, testing color for the glass chemist. This gave her an insightful knowledge of glass. The feminine appeal of glass, as well as the meditative process has kept her blowing for the past 23 years.

Dressing up and making costumes have been an almost involuntary part of her creativity. Embarking on the making of these glass corsets was a huge undertaking. Each individual component was handmade on a torch out of borosilicate glass. Theses corsets are hopefully the beginning of a body of work that will continue to grow. You can see her work displayed at the Seattle Erotic Art Festival, published in magazines and on the web at www.glassbysabina.com
