Artist Bio

Detroit-based glass artist Joshua Wojick works at the intersection of material, process, and perception, reaching beyond conventional glassblowing to explore the expressive and conceptual potential of glass alongside steel and clay. With a practice rooted in both tradition and experimentation, Wojick exploits the inherent fragility and structural strength of materials to challenge expectations and invite deeper reflection on how objects communicate meaning.

Wojick earned his B.F.A. from the College for Creative Studies and an M.F.A. in Sculpture from Eastern Michigan University. He has worked with glass since 1998, building a strong foundation in traditional furnace work while continually pushing the boundaries of material use. His commitment to learning from historical processes informs his belief that innovation is grounded in an understanding of the past.

A former adjunct faculty member at CCS, Wojick is currently the Senior Director of Collections and Greenfield Village Operations at The Henry Ford. With more than two decades of museum experience, he oversees the stewardship of nearly 26 million artifacts, bringing a deep understanding of both artistic practice and institutional collections to his work. His dual perspective as a practicing artist and museum leader informs his role as juror, offering a thoughtful and informed approach to evaluating contemporary creative work. His own work is represented nationally and held in private collections worldwide.

“As the juror for Re/View 2026, I am privileged to recognize the outstanding creativity and talent demonstrated by the graduates of the College for Creative Studies. With each interaction I have with my fellow alumni, I am continually impressed by the breadth and quality of their artistic achievements. I warmly encourage alumni from all disciplines to contribute their work to this annual exhibition. Re/View 2026 offers a meaningful occasion for our community to reconnect and celebrate the significant impact CCS alumni have as leaders in the arts.“

Small points of white light are submerged beneath the water’s surface, scattered across the lake to mirror a constellation, creating a calm, immersive scene where the glowing lights appear both above in the sky and below in the water.
