Artist Tom Scoon’s Recent Success: A Master of Glass and Granite on the Rise

New Hampshire sculptor Tom Scoon is enjoying an incredible year of success, with 13 of his works sold since July 2024. His latest exhibitions in Carmel, Toronto, Dallas, Southampton, Chicago, and Aspen have garnered significant attention, solidifying his place as a leading figure in contemporary glass and mixed-media sculpture.

Scoon, who has worked with glass and granite for over three decades, continues to captivate audiences with his innovative approach to the human figure. His sculptures, crafted from cast glass and organic granite, skillfully abstract the human form while preserving essential characteristics such as gender and gesture. The result is a powerful exploration of familial and generational relationships, both as personal narratives and as universal experiences.

The combination of translucent glass and natural granite—rich with quartz, mica, and iron—creates a stunning contrast, balancing the fragility of the human figure with the solidity of nature. This unique juxtaposition is a hallmark of Scoon’s work, offering viewers a meditative space to reflect on the strength and complexity of human connections.

Looking ahead, Habatat will be exhibiting Scoon’s work at the upcoming Glass Art Fair in Sarasota, Florida, during the Glass Coast Weekend, set for January 9–12, 2025. This prestigious event, now in its 10th year, offers collectors and art enthusiasts a weekend filled with exhibitions, auctions, museum and home tours, artist demonstrations, and talks. All are invited, but space is limited, so early registration is highly recommended to secure a spot for this unparalleled celebration of glass art.

Tom Scoon’s work, which blends the beauty of nature with timeless human themes, continues to resonate deeply with collectors and audiences alike. With his recent success, 2024 is proving to be a landmark year for this extraordinary artist.
