Hellooooo and welcome back to Cracked with Chevonne Ariss!
Today’s guest is Jax Partlow.
Jax Partlow is a glass artist based in Los Angeles. While formally trained in graphic design, Jax prefers the longevity and physical aspects that glasswork affords her, as well as a very tangible connection with her late father. It was only after she was left his tools that she gravitated toward the craft while living in Hungary. Thoughtful, romantic and functional, stained glass fulfills a creative desire for Jax as an artist, while meeting her designer side with its utilitarian appeal. She is most recognized for her Public Piece Project in which she installs her art in unlikely spaces. It’s my favorite. It’s so smart and cool and she’s my absolute favorite street artist.
Jax’s work has been featured in Stained Glass Magazine, The Corning Museum of Glass: New Glass Review 2022 and by her own accord in the streets of Los Angeles.
Let’s get into it….
Join me as I crack it wide open!
Jax made the cutest Guide to LA and glass piece map with her incredible graphic design skills and you can get your eyes on that at Patreon.com/runaglassworks or there is also always a link at the bottom of the show notes.
