Dale Chihuly

Dale Chihuly is a glass artist that works with a vibrant color palate. His vessel forms come about by accident, this happening in the majority of his work. He has always been interested in glass, ever since he was a child. He consider himself both an artist and a crafter. Chihuly creates organic forms and works, and he is concerned not with questions of imitation but for autonomous worlds of organic forms and colors. He is drawn to the media for its ability to transmits light, color and forms as beautifully. Precisely arranged lighting brings out the coldness of the glass and, at the same time, an overall atmosphere of warmth. Chihuly's spectacular glass art is displayed in museums worldwide and in massive installations. He brings together countless individual pieces to create a beautiful instillation that resembles an underwater garden.
