Kathy Burk Collections

With a fine artist’s eye, Kathy captures timelessness and light, motion and mystery in three different yet connected vessels – kiln glass, mosaic collage and architectural lighting.

Her body of work is also sought by private collectors around the world.

Kiln Glass

Reaction

Inspired by vibrant thermal pools found in Yellowstone National Park. The reactions that occur when glass and minerals are exposed to extreme heat are reminiscent of the geologic forces at play in Yellowstone.

Elements

Raw silica, soda, lime and minerals are melted and fused together into kiln glass that is broken then fused again with richly colored shards bringing forward a mesmerizing depth of brilliance and form.

Undercurrent

A strange and sprightly world flourishes beneath mountain rivers – sometimes visible, sometimes shrouded – at Mother Nature’s whim. Clear, colorful glass melded with opaque create curious eddies that swirl and shadow.

Mosaic Collage

Cubism

Using the cubism method, objects are sketched capturing interesting shapes, small details and simple forms. The drawings are combined into a mosaic glass design that artfully reinterprets the three-dimensional object.

Nature

Wild and rare, wonders of the Mountain West are explored through texture, contrast, depth and motion.

Transcendence

Stepping into the natural world means stepping outside the constraints of time. This sense of timelessness finds expression in the intersection of earthy elements – kiln glass, aged relics, rusted tin, stones, timbers and steel.
