The story
A studio
built twice.
Aurora Glassworks is run by Wyatt Bouchard, a glass artist from Belleville who grew up between his father's welding shop and his mother's ceramics studio.
Aurora Glassworks is an independent glass studio in Belleville, Ontario, run by founder and glass artist Wyatt Bouchard. Everything it makes — water pipes, rigs, one-hitters and accessories — is hand-blown borosilicate, worked at the torch in small runs and finished one piece at a time. Wyatt grew up between his father's welding shop and his mother's ceramics studio, started working borosilicate at twenty, and rebuilt the studio from almost nothing after a workshop fire took his equipment and most of his early work. The work falls into four ongoing series: Signature builds, sculpted Animal Spirits, experimental Colour Studies and everyday Ritual Forms. Pieces are sold directly by email enquiry, wholesale is open to retailers, and every piece is one of a kind — pricing, dimensions and availability are quoted per piece, and Wyatt answers the enquiries himself.
“Fire teaches patience. Glass remembers every mistake.”
