Twenty-five years of fire, steel, and glass in need of a home
Orion Fredericks has been making large-scale art since the late 1990s: first at Alfred University and Pilchuck Glass School, then as the first studio manager at The Crucible in Oakland, performing with the fire collective THERM by night and building monumental fountains by day.
The result is a body of work few artists can match in range: fire-breathing stainless steel creatures, art cars, civic commissions, glass, and large-scale charcoal drawings. Collectors, commissioners, and fans needed one place to see all of it, follow what’s in the shop now, and get in touch.
Website
Designed and built orionfredericks.studio: a Collection with dedicated Big Art and Drawings galleries, a page for every major piece with its build year, availability, and dimensions, The Latest for work in progress, and a Connect page that routes inquiries straight to the studio.
Copywriting & editing
Piece-by-piece storytelling in a voice as playful as the work, from Gilly’s 1,200°F firebursts to the glowing holiday ham that inspired the Twins.
Content curation
Gathered a quarter-century of photography and video across 14 big-art pieces and dozens of drawings into galleries, a timeline view, and a homepage spotlight.
Orion’s full body of work now lives in one place, from his earliest sound-and-steel installations to Gilly’s permanent home at Area15 and the Dragonfly art car built for Burning Man 2024, with every piece told in his own elemental voice.
“I am manifesting physical space that supports the experience of relearning language.”
