12"h x 12"w
cast dichroic glass in aluminum frame
This cast glass wall sculpture transforms light into a shimmering field of crystalline color and texture. Hundreds of faceted glass fragments are fused together within a sleek metal frame, creating a luminous composition that shifts between icy whites, warm glowing oranges, and vibrant ocean blues as the viewing angle and light direction change. Both sculptural and architectural, the piece evokes sunlight dancing across water, bringing depth, sparkle, and contemporary elegance to any space.
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.
