Resurrect Studio

Resurrect Studio (Nancy Wu and Jean Davis, Co-Founders) creates sculptures from Victorian-era NYC landfill glass that collectively narrate a tale of hope and inspiration, blending elements of the sacred and the profane. They collect glass fragments duringecomposing in the bay that have been tumbling for a century. Depending on the tide, the inventory varies greatly like the catch of the day. Fragments are sculpted into “3D watercolors.” How has one generation’s garbage become another’s gemstones? What will our children be mining? Resurrect Studio’s non-traditional approach to glasswork is aimed at finding the transcendent in the everyday.
