Rob Levin is another of the artists that will be at the Artful Living Weekend. This is the first time our paths will cross and I’m looking forward to meeting this intuitive and talented man. In a quote from his website Rob talks of the subtle communication he has with his work and creativity.

“I find that various aspects of my work take on much more personal connotations for me, although rarely in any explicit ways. This usually happens without my conscious knowledge; I may be looking at a completed piece and see something new in it — something about myself or my work. This kind of dialogue with the work has become very important to me. I view many of the pieces I’ve done as extensions of this dialogue, and as an analogy for my attempt to integrate the various facets of my life — the fusing of various parts, somewhat off-balance, but hopefully integrated into some sort of harmony. The glass itself can be a symbol of human characteristics: fragile, but durable; fluid, but hard-edged. This all has something to do with the possibilities for change and transformation, both with the material and with the person doing the creating. I think of my work as an act of communication, not only with myself, but with the viewer as well. Perhaps what is communicated is more of an attitude than a specific idea.”

Here’s some photos of Rob’s work.
