Josephine A. Geiger

"Inspiration comes from so many sources, so I simply start, interacting with the materials and the image as if in a live conversation. New ideas emerge as I work, and those provide the boldness and the spirit that I want. "

Josephine A. Geiger's artwork emphasizes the underlying architecture of the scene--the lines, details, and movement--through a palette comprised almost wholly of rectangles and squares. And while it might seem that there is a calculated, mathematical approach to creation, she uses no patterns for her artwork.

Geiger creates her work using leaded stained glass techniques. Although her pieces may be hung on a wall like traditional art, she recommends hanging them in front of a window for maximum enjoyment.

With a professional background in architecture, Geiger combines those years of training and design sensibility alongside loads of experience and experimentation with glass.
