CIAO! Time for a little Fun. March 2025, off to Italy. I have traveled to Murano, Italy numerous times over the years and I have made many connections with both American artists, living and working there but also formed amazing friendships with Italian Maestros and colleagues. I must give kudos to my dear friend, Alexis Silk who encouraged and assisted me in organizing studio time at ARS. ARS Murano is a glass factory which specializes in the production of artistic sculptures of their own design, all made according to the ancient technique of the Murano Glass Masters. ARS factory is one of the few which will open their doors to collaborate with other famous, international artists to assist them in the realization of their projects. It was a challenge to organize everything, to say the least. Communication, logistics, I had to ship my graphite molds, sand forms, tools, colors, purchase new ladles to be welded and fabricated, figure out when and how the castings could be worked into the factory schedule. They do things different; I however, embrace change. I love the challenge and I learned so much! The most significant moment is how Maestro Christiano, punty's up the large casting and takes it to the glory hole. I have the upmost respect for the Muranese/Venetians and express my gratitude! ... Magic Happens in Murano. SOOOO... with the assistance of Maestro Christiano, Alexis Silk and the ARS team, I cast a series of sculptures. These works are being acquired by one of the largest galleries in Murano and will be available for purchase soon.

Galleries

My work embodies an interest in mythological imagery, symbolism, and philosophies from historic and ancient cultures. I love to travel and I am intensely interested in ancient civilizations, symbols of ritual art, ancient myths and how they connect us, most deeply, with our own nature and our place in this world.

The casting process is intense and involves ladling the molten glass directly from the furnace at 2300° F. Timing, temperature and the casting team all have to work together with absolute accuracy to create each piece. Gott frequently works with a rigid sand mold technique, for it allows detail and the ability to work on a large scale.
