In 2018, a pivotal moment in his studio led to the birth of Sculptures with Light, when the addition of illumination transformed his work into glowing, portal-like forms that merge art and function.In this conversation, we explore cultural identity, organic design, the emotional power of light, and how Jorge bridges traditional craftsmanship with contemporary innovation.Follow Jorge:https://www.instagram.com/jorgeizazawood/https://www.jorgeizaza.com/✨ Follow & support:@artvancouver@vvafofficialThank you for listening to the Art Stories Podcast, where we celebrate the stories behind the art.
