Adrienne is a graduate of Alberta University of the Arts, class of 2012 majoring in Glass. Since then she has been living and working in southern Ontario, finding joy in the small things. Adrienne feels a deep connection between glass and the human experience. Constantly drawn to the process of ups and downs that come with glass work, it in turn teaches her how to conquer her own challenges. In her journey with cancer, and most recent brain surgery, glass has taught her to always look for the light and most importantly, the joy.

Since brain recovery, her world has competely opened up to the wonders of cold working. Combining found rocks and glass, she has started to explore the beauty that can come from what is often seen as damaged. These pieces serve as reminders that a crack is often where the light comes in.
