Trenton artist Glenn Moore uses talents derived from his real life experiences to create his collage boxes, custom picture frames, and other 3-D art. He finds innovative ways to use glass, metal, wood, and his favorite tool – an oxy-acetylene torch, to celebrate various aspects of people’s lives within the confines of a small handcrafted box. His assemblages run the gamut from abstract to realistic.Glenn works in many disciplines -- metalworking, monoprints, chine-collé, photography, and lost-wax casting, to name a few. He has taught classes on photography, film making, monoprints, and plaster masks. He sports a V-shaped scar on his right hand from his first glass cutting lesson at age twelve.
