Join us for a glass lecture with artist Alli Hoag. Alli works across mediums
of glass, installation, video, and performance to investigate human desire to
connect with the unknowable, and to reveal the simultaneous lightness and
heaviness that is created when the imagined or invisible is labored into the
physical realm. She completed her BFA degree in Glass at University of Hawaii
at Manoa, graduated with a Master’s in fine art from New York State College of
Ceramics at Alfred University, and currently serves as Associate Professor of
Glass and Glass Area Head at Bowling Green State University, in Bowling Green,
OH.
