Jo Tricker
Region: Tauranga
“I am fascinated by glass – by its ability to transform itself from a solid to a liquid and back to a solid again! For me it is the endless fascination of where science and art meet.”
Jo uses kilnforming and flameworking techniques to make a wide variety of art glass objects – both functional and decorative. Her inspiration comes from travel, books, music, dance, her family history and the stunning Bay of Plenty where she resides.
She has completed many master classes in glass and was a finalist in the Rotorua Museum Art Awards in 2019, and a finalist in the Miles Art Awards 2020. She has two apprenticeships in Medical Laboratory Technology, a BA in English Literature, and a Certificate in Graphic Design.
