About Matt Kolbrener

Inspired by the postindustrial landscape, Matt's approach to shaping hot glass has its roots in production. He constructs custom-made tooling to form and texture the hot glass into shapes that capture Detroit's rich manufacturing history in an industrial, modern, retro aesthetic all his own.
