About Nicole Vachier Lozano

native of Texas, I was raised in San Antonio. I

graduated from Our Lady of the Lake University, with a

Bachelor's of Science in 1997. Since that time, I have

worked for a large financial institution where I am to this

day. By day I work with people. By night with glass.

lass as a medium,

balances application of

science

and

creativity, requir

ing

to utilize both technical

skills

and

creative abilities. I

apply

understanding of the

physics

involved in temperature

control to achieve

specific

results.

My work is influenced by

this process as

the world

around

me.

Specifically,

I draw

, from

travels and

experiences

in other areas

such as

calligraphy, book

binding and

fabrics

I believe strongly the feelings picked up by your fingers as

they run across a piece are just as important as the

message received visually. And that art/craft is meant

just to be owned but enjoyed.

have always felt

need to create with my hands. Whether with scraps of

fabric, paper,

paint or

anything else I could get hold of.

touched me in a way

nothing else had before.

work to

convey these values by creating items made to be lived with and used. I regularly include

raised

elements and pay close attention to the

specific

type of finish each piece is given. This increases visual

depth and contributes to

that

ever

important sense of touch.

I am glad you took thi

s time to visit with me.

I hope you will enjoy viewing my

work as much

as I have

creating it.
