Chelsea Rousso

Chelsea Rousso is a glass artist, fashion designer and writer, and former teacher at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. She specializes in kiln-formed fused glass and holds regular classes for aspiring glass artists at her studio and at the Wiener Museum workshops. Chelsea combines her love of fashion and glass into a unique form of wearable glass, including corsets and bikini tops, which are exhibited in the museum. One of the challenges she faced with creating wearable glass was developing a technique that followed the form of the female body. Chelsea also creates unique sculptures with ribbons of glass woven and fused into beautiful silhouettes and fazzoletto-style draped bowls inspired by Chihuly’s Macchia forms.
