From the classrooms of Rutgers to the glass factories of Sweden, one artist's journey is a beautiful fusion of tradition and innovation.🎨
Meet Serafina Kennedy, a Rutgers alumna who turned her passion into a Fulbright-funded adventure. After graduating from Mason Gross, Serafina sought to master graal, a Swedish glassblowing technique involving intricate etching and layering. For 10 months, she immersed herself in the craft in the remote village of Boda Glasbruk, creating stunning works inspired by the Swedish landscape.
Beyond the art, her experience was a true cultural exchange. Serafina connected with artists from around the world, building relationships that she says have helped her grow as a person and as an artist. Now back in the U.S., she's ready to share her work and her knowledge, hoping to inspire other students to chase their dreams through programs like Fulbright.
