As a storyteller, John Moran’s work is constructed from a series of anecdotes, references, and experiences. While he draws ties to American pop culture, politics, and social issues, it’s not done arbitrarily. The artist attempts to illustrate how he sees the barrage of consumerism, religion, and politics colliding with depictions of social injustice, secular beliefs, and popular culture. These hot sculpted works pack an emotional punch through unforgettable imagery as seen in pieces such as New Times Roman and Sale of the Deathman.
Moran States: “I myself am a product of all of these things; I am American, and America was founded on dissent. To paraphrase Picasso: my work is a collection of lies, hopefully helping the viewer realize the truth. Though for me the truth is not absolute, it is simply how I see the world. It is not necessarily an attempt at subversion, but more an attempt to reconcile, and in a way celebrate, the absurdity and hypocrisy of society.”
These attributes and ideologies made Moran’s appearance on the Netflix glassblowing competition series, Blown Away 3, a personal nod to irony. Originally from Philadelphia, the winner of Season 3 currently resides in Ghent, Belgium, where he directs Gent Glas, a community glass studio he co-founded in 2014. The mission of Gent Glas is to build an inclusive community of artists working to introduce glass as an artistic medium to the public.
Receiving his BFA from Tyler School of Art and MFA from Illinois State University, Moran recently completed his PhD at Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wroclaw, Poland. He has participated in several international artist in residence programs including CGCA at WheatonArts, S12, GlazenHuis Lommel, and STARWorks. His work has been exhibited in many galleries and museums across the United States and Europe, including Habatat Galleries, SiC! Gallery, Glasmuseet Ebeltoft, and Delaware Contemporary.
Since winning Blown Away 3, Moran has been extremely busy. October events included demonstrating at Michigan Hot Glass and a Meet the Artist event for the exhibition We Are Blown Away at Habatat Detroit Fine Arts. On October 21 at 7 p.m., Moran will give a public demonstration at the Pittsburgh Glass Center (PGC) alongside Minhi England and John Sharvin. Throughout the month of November, he will participate in Habatat’s online exhibition Not Grandmas Glass. His residency at Museum of Glass Tacoma runs from November 9 – 13. In 2023, an exhibition with England and Sharvin will be held at PGC in February and Moran’s Corning Museum of Glass residency – grand prize for winning Blown Away 3 – begins in April.
Of the inspiration for his glass sculpture, Moran states: “It may not seem autobiographical, but my experiences and observations are the genesis of my ideas. Each piece is a reaction to a specific event, but is not an illustration of it. I pull from everything around me. My own political and religious views, art, books, movies, family, and popular culture culminate into layers of seemingly random references, multiple components, and a visual overload that mimics our daily experience.”
“Women make about 75% of all household consumption decisions, and control close to 100 trillion in wealth,” says Ida Liu, Global Head of Citi Private Bank. "Women can no longer be ignored."
On the latest episode of Living Beyond Borders, we look at the impact women have in 2022 on the U.S. and global economy. After some progress in the number of women in leadership positions and running businesses, the COVID-19 pandemic saw a setback for millions of women, especially those responsible for childcare. We'll look at how they are faring, and the gains women around the globe stand to obtain in the coming years.
This episode is moderated by Tracy Moran, managing editor of GZERO's daily newsletter Signal; and features Ida Liu, Global Head of Citi Private Bank, and Isadora Seixas, Global Macro-Geostrategy Analyst at Eurasia Group.

EP 93: Navigating the New Normal in eCommerce Marketing
In Episode 93 of the Lion’s Share Marketing Podcast, Tyler and Jon discuss TikTok’s new self-serve advertising platform and how it may benefit marketing leaders. They go on to cover TikTok's ongoing data privacy issues and Tyler advises that if marketers have the resources to try out TikTok's ad platform, it's not the worst bet out there.
Next, Tyler introduces Patrick Moran, a marketing leader with experience at a wide variety of household brands including Netflix and Spotify. Patrick dishes on the commonalities between the different brands and how companies need to evolve with their consumers. He dives into his experiences between Netflix and Spotfiy and the differences of their marketing outreach. He also gives his perspective of his time at Yik Yak and its issues involving username handles and bullying within the community. With Patrick’s current company, he says that working in smaller teams has helped improve efficiency. Ultimately, Patrick advises that the biggest marketing platform is the product itself.
Join Tyler, Jon, and Patrick for more information on brand performance and marketing strategies.

This week, I’m talking about Judy Moran, the matriarch of the Moran crime family in Australia. That’s right, we’re talking about the mafia, and if I disappear after this episode then it’s been a pleasure talking murder with you all. Hopefully my possible death would be covered by Karen and Georgia on MFM. That is my final wish so, y’all, make it happen
