Meet Cedric Mitchell, LA-based glassblower extraordinaire.
Instagram isn’t just his gallery. It’s his creative sanctuary. From crafting bold, sculptural glass forms to documenting the process through Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, Cedric uses technology to stay hands-on and in the moment.

Through platforms like Instagram, artists like Cedric bypass traditional gatekeepers, connecting directly with collectors, collaborators, and community. It’s a new creative economy rooted in access, authorship, and shared experience—where the work speaks for itself and the audience grows with it.

His ‘funk is contagious.’ This L.A. glassblower breaks the rules with his stunning vessels

Mitchell, 37, was an emerging hip-hop artist in Tulsa, Okla., when he first considered glassblowing. It was 2012, and he was recording a song in a Tulsa music studio when he noticed his friend’s impressive glass bong.

“He told me about a studio in downtown Tulsa where I could take a glass-blowing class as an elective at my community college,” says Mitchell, who was studying business at Tulsa Community College. “I immediately signed up for the class at 1 a.m.”
