“With my work I hope to create non linear narratives using objects much like a poet uses words. ...Glass, with its transparency and translucency as a material, is at once there and not there, making it the perfect poetic material to try to capture the fleeting.” – Michael Rogers
After spending 11 years in Japan where he was head of Aichi University’s Glass Department, artist Michael Rogers returned to the United States where he is now a Professor in the College of Imaging Arts and Sciences at Rochester Institute of Technology in New York. Michael’s work can be found in the permanent collections of the Suntory Museum of Art in Japan, First Contemporary Glass Museum in Spain, Museo del Vidrio in Mexico, National Museum in L’viv, Ukraine, and the Corning Museum of Glass in the United States.
