Brady Foster’s Metalshop Studio houses full blacksmithing and fabrication shops. Blurring the lines between an industrial metal shop and an artist’s metal shop, he strives to realize any client’s ideas into metal with the finest quality.

I find my balance by pairing fine wooden furniture with rough wood strip sculpture. My furniture pieces are well planned, tightly fit, and finished. My sculpture is the opposite. By lacking tightly fit joinery and finish, they evolve as they are built with very little planning. With my sculpture I have embraced what some would consider flaws, and instead of hiding them, I illuminate them with neon light exposing their inner beauty.

Our studio, El Chavez, explores collaboration. As a means of transferring ideas from one skill set to another, we present our Polaroid show: a personal showcase of collective images that combines our professional skill sets in both photography and design. Polaroid, a disappearing analog medium, forces deliberate editing to a single and special image. The show is a collaborative exercise in narrative, chemistry and idiosyncrasies.

The style of glassblowing that I specialize in is lampworking. I use a large and very hot torch, powered by oxygen and propane, to melt and shape borosilicate glass. I create colorful and fun, yet, functional contemporary glass pieces including: perfume bottles, vases, pendants, ring holders, and other decorative ornaments. I have over ten years of experience in lampworking and my sculptural work was recently published in Glassline Magazine.

Joseph Phillips uses gouache paint on paper to create landscapes that are subtly satirica explorations of utopian ersatz. The pieces in his current series depict pre-fabricated land units that could be theoretically dropped into place in affluent suburban sprawl.
