Hawaii glass artist Daniel Moe lives with his family in Kalapana, on the Big Island, just a few miles away from the active Kilauea volcano and the blue waters of the Pacific.

Daniel created the Kilauea Volcano glass collection to convey the glowing, raw energy of magma, surging forth from the core of the earth.  The color of the lava is so brilliant that everything around it fades by comparison.  The flowing lava is relentless and unpredictable.

Daniel says, ““I fell in love with glass as a medium to express my love and connection to nature. When I approach glass in its fluid state, I feel as if this connection is enhanced. Tuning into this sacred space, allows me to understand the link between the earth elements and my own.

Glass is not only a material, it is matter, living its own life, a powerful medium of communication. It is both beautiful and treacherous. It lends itself to metaphor because it can imitate some things, such as Water, Magma, Stone and suggests other things like Air and Light. It is poetry.”

The "Graal" technique is a Swedish glassmaking technique developed at the Orrefors glassworks in 1916. The name "Graal," which is Swedish for "Grail" or "Holy Grail," is thought to be derived from the process's complexity and the artistic beauty achieved.
