Renee Stout grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and received her BFA from Carnegie Mellon University in 1980. She looks to the belief system of African peoples and their descendants throughout the African Diaspora, as well as to the world and her immediate environment, for the inspiration to create works that encourage self-examination, self-empowerment and self-healing.

Tipping Tuesday

Hot popping is a term used for making a precise cut or break using temperature shock on stressed glass. In this video the glass is marked with a cut using a scoring tool. Once the heat is applied to the score, the glass breaks around the piece along the score line. It’s quick, easy and efficient - give it a try!
