​"Drawing inspiration from the American Brilliant Cut Glass of the late 19th century, Stern’s new Crosscut series celebrates the traditions of the historical art form. Using wheel-cutting tools he carves deeply in to the glass surface to create a high relief surface that is designed to reflect and refract light. However, unlike the cut glass vessels of the past, these sculptures are not vessels designed to hold things but containers to hold light. Occasional polished and smooth surfaces reveal a pristine glass interior, a moment of calm, pure color, that strikes a harmonious balance with densely carved areas."
