Mathieu Grodet

Mathieu Grodet is an award-winning, internationally recognized glass artist, flame worker, and illustrator born in Orléans, France (1977). Now based in Killaloe, Ontario, he creates work that bridges the history of glass with contemporary themes - combining traditional techniques with a distinctly modern and thought provoking edge.

His practice explores the intersection of form, function, and design, often reimagining familiar structures to spark conversation and invite new perspectives. In addition to his studio work, Grodet is an accomplished educator, regularly lecturing and teaching glassblowing, flameworking, and enameling techniques around the world.

His workshops and presentations have taken him across China, Japan, Turkey, Ireland, France, Germany, Belgium, Canada, and the United States. His work is held in private collections throughout Europe and North America and is featured in major institutions including the Corning Museum of Glass, the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, and the Art Institute of Chicago
