Paula Hayes Terrarium Designer and Artist

Terrarium Designer and Artist Paula Hayes

Who is artist Paula Hayes?

Paula Hayes is an American artist known for her works in sculpture, installation art, and landscape design. Born in 1958 in Concord, Massachusetts, Hayes has gained recognition for her unique and innovative approach to creating living artworks.

One of Hayes’ notable mediums is the use of glass containers and terrariums. She creates miniature ecosystems by combining plants, soil, and other natural elements within carefully crafted glass vessels. These terrariums serve as self-contained environments, blurring the boundaries between art, nature, and science.

Hayes’ works often explore the interconnectedness of the natural world, the fragility of ecosystems, and the impact of human intervention on the environment. Her creations evoke a sense of harmony and balance, inviting viewers to contemplate their relationship with the natural world.

In addition to her terrariums, Paula Hayes has also created larger-scale installations, sculptures, and landscape designs. Her works have been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

Hayes, originally from Concord, MA, is an artist who has showcased her works in numerous solo and group exhibitions worldwide. Her pieces have been seen in The New York Times, Artnet, Elle Decor, Interior Design, Garden Design, Vogue Living Australia, and more. What we love about her work is the modern approach bringing the outdoors inside and creating a space imbibed with life. Gone are the days of fake plants, bamboo trees from Chinatown, and love ferns.

Today’s modern being can truly appreciate the ingenious work of Paula Hayes who incorporates beautifully blown glass pieces with natural elements to create an organic sense of ecology. These works are great additions to the creative home serving as centerpieces or as main focal points.
