Milon Townsend

Milon Townsend is a self-taught artist with over 30 years of experience in his field. His 10 year study of dancers in New York City had a profound influence on his style, leading to the clean lines and focus on motion that he has become known for. Townsend background in classical music was instrumental in developing the preference for structure and form that permeates his work today. Townsend uses torches to melt the glass that he works with, a technique called flameworking. Colors are twisted upon themselves and encased inside the glass. The delicate patterns are etched into sheets of dichroic glass, and elements are ground and polished in preparation for assembly. Then ultraviolet adhesives are employed to laminate pieces together. Townsend uses modern technological innovations, traditional Italian techniques, such as murrine and filigrana, and methods that he himself has developed to create the sculptures that appear in his mind.
