Profile:
Joel T. Park was Born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1951 and started producing ceramics since 1994 and glass since 1996. For much of his life Joel appreciated art as a spectator and never thought he would enjoy creating work.  Much to his surprise clay pieces flowed and forms were born naturally.  Always open to new ideas and methods Joel experiments continually and finds exposure to various artists in any media an asset.  As in clay, his glass work continues to evolve, looking for new ways to express himself.
