Nathan Sambar
Nathan Sambar is a once Bay Area local turned Seattle glassblower and industrial designer. He is CCA alumni, but learned his trade of glassblowing alongside his father. With a background in product design and digital fabrication, he started Voltawrks last year and is currently opening Monterey GlassWorks. Pushing the limits of the raw materials used while keeping sustainability in mind, Nate transcends the traditional use of ancient glassblowing techniques by exploring its relationship and interaction with modern environments and digital technologies like 3D printing metal and other materials. He continues to share and develop his research through teaching.
