Biography

Tom Marosz is an acclaimed glass artist known for his innovative manipulation of light and glass. His journey into the world of glass art began early, with teenage interests in photography and optics that led to pioneering holography projects in the 1960s. His work was so advanced that he collaborated with the Navy Electronics Lab team in Point Loma during this period.

Early Career and Transition to Art

Marosz spent 15 years in the construction industry as a glazing contractor, where he developed a reputation for accomplishing tasks others deemed impossible. This experience honed his skills in cold working, cutting, and polishing glass, which he later applied to his art. His transition from construction to art allowed him to explore the creative possibilities of glass, leading to the creation of stunning sculptures using optic crystal, dichroic coatings, and kiln fusing.

Major Installations

Marosz’s expertise has enabled him to undertake several large-scale installations:

  • Vantage Pointe Sculpture: A lit glass winged water feature standing over 18 feet tall, located at the entrance to downtown San Diego.
  • Law School of British Columbia: A four-story installation featuring 450 suspended glass spheres.
  • Viejas Hotel and Casino: In 2013, he created several glass features for the remodel, including jumbo glass panels fused with colors and textures reflective of the Viejas Kumeyaay Indian culture.

Artistic Philosophy

Marosz’s art is a reflection of his life’s experiences, both good and bad, combined with his mastery of glass manipulation. He is fascinated by light and strives to control it in ways that surprise and engage viewers. His work often incorporates negative space to tell a story, as seen in his piece “Tear For Henry,” dedicated to his father.
