From tiny experiences we build cathedrals.” – Orhan Pamuk, Nobel Prize in Literature

Have you ever wished you could bottle a moment to keep forever?  I’ve spent more than 20 years capturing memories and moments as miniature worlds in boxes, called Glass Cathedrals. I’ve made all sorts of Glass Cathedrals – of films I love, books, political messages, portraits of my heroes, I’ve even had a circus-themed solo art exhibition at Anthropologie. There are now thousands scattered around the world.

I especially love to create custom portraits – getting the tiny figures to resemble real people doing what they love, with the people they love, in the places they love.

I feel your work is like ripping up the bathroom floor of an old home and finding an entire other floor that belonged to the owners from half a century ago.  It is magical and new and familiar all at the same time.” – Rani W., Chicago
