Sharif Cheyenne Whitaker I started working in glass in 2000 in Burlington, Vt. Doing a lampworking apprenticeship for 9 months. In 2002-2004 I followed that up in the hotshop at MassArt in Boston, MA. While studying there and at School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Had an internship at Church and Maple Glass in Burlington, VT. in 2003, and another at Diablo Glass and Metal in Boston, MA. in 2004-2005. I haved just returned from a year abroad, where I studied glass at the Academy of Art, Architecture and Design in Praha, Czech Republic, under Prof. Vladimir Kopecky, aswell as blowing glass at world reknowned Ajeto Glassworks in Lindava, Czech Republic.

This is a technique I thought up and tryed a few times. The top is not bitwork, but sguareish tube cut, heated and picked up off a plate. I guess it is hollow murrhini.Then incombo'ed with the bottom blow piece. Please leave a comment if you have seen something like this or know of anyone doing it.

My winter semester semester work from AAAD in Praha.
Through the window you can peer into the 1mx1mx2m tower while being covered by a old fashion camera like cloth. There are 5 controls on the outside of the tower. From these places others can control what the solitary viewer is experiencing, by moving Glass mirrors and a spindle of blank CD's.
