Silicon Valley Open Studios

About Sarit Khen

I have always been passionate about art and took a variety of art classes while growing up in Israel and as a product engineer in the Silicon Valley: from clay and drawing to silk art and painting. After discovering glass art, I decided that art is my new path in life.

I am fascinated by glass art because of its exquisite beauty, stunning colors and magnificent transparency. I am especially delighted to open the kiln and see my fused glass artwork come to life; its colors and shapes are enhanced after firing at high temperatures of up to 1450F.

My happy place is the beach, and I love bringing it to my studio and artwork.
Shakuf means transparent in Hebrew – beautiful glass captures the light shining through…
