About
Anna Fox was born in Moscow, Russia, moved to New York City at six, and grew up in Brooklyn. She studied communication design at FIT. An artist her whole life, she started as a painter in acrylic and collage, then discovered glass during the COVID pandemic. She first learned glass fusing at Aurora Borealis Glass Works in Albuquerque, where she later became a resident artist, and has spent the past three years making kiln-fired fused glass paintings in her home garage studio, carrying her linear style into the medium. She also makes custom dishes and plates, including display plates commissioned by Holsem, a San Diego coffee shop, around 2024. A wife and mother, she draws on emotion and the way color can convey it, along with the Russian constructivism tied to her Moscow roots. Her work was featured at Tractor Brewing in Nob Hill, Albuquerque, in July–August 2026, where four pieces sold.
Artist Statement
I’ve been an artist my whole life. I started as a painter, working in acrylic and collage, and when glass found me during the COVID pandemic, I fell in love with it and carried my linear style right into the new medium. I work out of a glass studio in my garage, and I’ve been creating from home for three years now.
My pieces are kiln-fired fused glass paintings. Each one is built from hundreds to thousands of individual pieces of glass, composed either as a mosaic or as an abstract piece. The work is bright, colorful, and abstract, with linear designs and flowing geometric shapes. Alongside the glass paintings, I make custom dishes and plates.
I was born in Moscow, and I think that’s part of why Russian constructivism speaks to me: the bold lines, the geometry, the sense that shape and color can carry real energy. Alongside modern art, it’s one of my biggest influences. But what I’m really chasing is feeling. I draw from emotions and try to let color say what words can’t.
