It lends itself equally to being integrated into architecture or added as desired to an existing facility or home. Meltdown Glass, under the artistic direction of artists BJ Katz and Chris Klein, is dedicated to expanding the frontier of kiln-cast glass in architectural and sculptural applications.Katz says, “As Ernest Hemmingway once remarked, ‘we are all apprentices at a craft no one can master.’ I feel the same way about glass.. I wake up each day eager to meet the next challenge.
