Director of the MIT Glass Lab, Peter Houk’s artwork ranges from intimate pieces in which the blown, sandblasted and painted vessel is used as a vehicle for landscape, to sculptural work—sometimes on a large scale—installed in architectural settings. About his own work, he says, “In one way or another, all of my work is linked to painting, printmaking, or drawing. My main preoccupation seems to be with the differences and similarities between natural and man-made structures.”
