Jahday Ford is a visionary glass artist who specialises in hot glass and mold design. He utilises a unique combination of glassblowing and digital design to create contemporary glass objects that are a radical departure from traditional forms.
Ford’s work is characterised by an exploration of materiality. Through experimentation, he bonds these two contrasting mediums, glass and digital design, to create truly bespoke pieces.
In his own words, “I create work that’s very bespoke and I create different aspects of design and craft. I like to create contemporary versions of glass rather than traditional.”
Ford works with a variety of materials compatible with glass, pushing the boundaries of the art form.
