cast dichroic glass sculpture
Cosmic Toad reflects the full spectrum of light up through perfectly clear cast glass. This psychedelic sculpture was cast from a hand sculpted mold, demonstrating the peak of Jeremy Sinkus' skill in an accessibly-sized package.
What is dichroic glass and why do these sculptures seem to glow?
Dichroic glass (or "dichro") is a glass sheet or film that has been coated with metal oxides (often gold) to create a microns-thick layer that reflects a spectrum of color, shifting with changing light. Developed by NASA as aerospace technology, the material has been adopted by glassblowers to create mesmerizing works of art.
