Corey Pemberton (he/him) received his BFA from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2012. He has completed residencies at The Pittsburgh Glass Center (PA), Bruket (Bodø, NO), as well as a Core Fellowship at the Penland School of Craft (NC). He currently resides in Los Angeles, California where he splits his time between the nonprofit arts organization Crafting the Future, glass blowing, and his painting practice. Pemberton strives to bring together people of all backgrounds and identities, breaking down stereotypes and building bridges; not only through his work with Crafting The Future but with his personal artistic practice as well.
Pemberton examines the depth of information that one can glean from being let into someone’s personal space. The objects we surround ourselves with are rich with character and this invitation to spend time with them makes the associated subjects relatable and intriguing.
