Exploring the intersection of glass science and neon artistry for over two decades.
Mark O. Naylor is a production designer and art director whose unique practice bridges the gap between scientific precision and creative expression. With deep expertise in glass science and neon artistry, he creates installations that transform ordinary spaces into extraordinary sensory experiences.
His work explores the boundary between illumination and interaction, creating installations that respond to environment and viewer presence. Each piece is a dialogue between material, light, and human experience—exploring how we perceive and are affected by light in space.
