Website

Stephen Brucker operates his flameworking studio in Camillus, New York, and exhibits his work throughout the Northeast and Midwest. He has been selected as an award recipient in both nationally and internationally juried exhibitions.

Stephen received his MFA in Sculpture with a minor in Glass Sculpture and Art History from the Rochester Institute of Technology in 2012 and his BFA in Sculpture with a minor in Art History from SUNY Oswego in 2005. Stephen is the former manager of Community Programs at The Studio of the Corning Museum of Glass.

His borosilicate glass sculptures serve as a metaphor for his lived experience as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and are centered on the combination of forms and structures found in nature that are aligned with themes signifying home, inclusion, and equity. Fragility, transparency, balance, and impermanence are core conceptual topics Stephen explores in each of his sculptures. He is most interested in representing these concepts in the most economical way possible while pushing the physical properties of the material.
