flame-worked glass sculptureSinkus’ Squid series demonstrates his mastery of the flame-working technique while offering a dynamic foundation upon which to constantly reinterpret the ever-shifting appearance of these charismatic mollusks. Dichroic glass recreates bioluminescence and color-shifting chromatophores. Metachrosis - the physiological process that allows the squid to change its appearance in the blink of any eye - allows for a world in which Sinkus’ Amber Squid and its companion piece Dichroic Squid are representations of the same creature, only moments apart.
This work is included in the exhibition Beneath There is Light, on view at The Glass Station Gallery from June 6-19
