Rinoi Imada
Glass Artist, Interdisciplinary Artist
Rinoi Imada is an interdisciplinary artist whose ideas are inspired by glass, utilizing glass as a material and thinking tools to create her works. Drawn from a curiosity in the rich subtlety of human experience, her practice takes in various sculptural relationships with glass and glass related processes to explore languages that are easily dismissed, ignored and unseen through our lifetime. Imada earned her Master of Fine Arts degree in Glass from Rochester Institute of Technology in 2021. She is currently a craft practitioner fellow at Kanazawa Utatsuyama Kogei Kobo in Kanazawa, Ishikawa prefecture, Japan. She has received awards and residency opportunities from Penland School of Craft in North Carolina and GlazenHuis in Lommel, Belgium in addition to others.
