Axiom Glass - Andrew Madvin
Artistic Style: Hot Glass - Art and Design Manufacturing

Andrew MadvinDetroit-based artist Andrew Madvin is known for his striking hand-sculpted glasswork that blends refined form with organic intensity. A graduate of the College for Creative Studies, Andrew continued his training at California College of the Arts and the renowned Pilchuck Glass School before founding Axiom Glass in 2000. His Thorn Series—offered in a spectrum of over 15 curated colors—beautifully juxtaposes sleek vessels with wild textures of hand-pulled glass thorns, creating a dynamic interplay of light and material. Select pieces from the Thorn Series are currently on view at Lighting Resource Studio.

Madvin’s work is rooted in technical mastery and a deeply personal aesthetic, shaped by early explorations in metal and jewelry that earned him national recognition. Today, with a talented team at Axiom Glass, his pieces are collected around the world and celebrated for their sculptural impact and emotional resonance.

“As an artist, I strive to create objects that evoke memory and stir emotion—pieces that transcend time. Thank you for supporting the handmade, the intimate, and the original.”
– Andrew Madvin
