For #BlueSkyArtShow #Chaos. Brilliantly colored, hand-blown glass forms by Dale Chihuly, from the Chihuly Collection in St. Petersburg (2017). #DaleChihuly #PhotographersOfBlueSky #photography #glass #artglass #glasssculpture #sculpture #contemporaryglassart #EastCoastKin #ECK #WCK
A sleek, glossy, dark glass vase or urn-like figure dominates the foreground. Its smooth, obsidian-like surface creates sharp, elongated reflections from the studio lighting. Loops of coiled glass wrap around and extend from the dark central body. These tubular ribbons feature a striking pattern of alternating orange-red and black translucent stripes. This image displays a close-up of intricate, blown glass sculptures with distinct organic shapes and vibrant, multi-layered color treatments. Left Sculpture: A tall, slender vase-like structure featuring a dark, iridescent body that transitions into a translucent olive green near the base. It is adorned with a dramatic, twisting swirl of amber and copper-toned striped glass wrapping around its neck and lower base. Right Sculpture: A teardrop-shaped glass form featuring a speckled body covered in multicolored flecks (blue, white, and dark tones) over a warm amber, patterned base. A lime green, coiled glass ribbon spirals upward behind it. The photo showcases a whimsical hand-blown glass art sculpture heavily inspired by Dale Chihuly's iconic Ikebana and Fiori botanical series. The centerpiece is a speckled, vibrant green glass vase with a flared rim and a bulbous base, resting on a dark platform. Extending out of the vase are abstract, organic floral shapes. One stem winds upward to support a brilliant pink, sunburst-like flower with a yellow-green center. A second curved white stem extends outward, holding up a mottled green and yellow mushroom cap. This image shows an Ikebana glass sculpture by renowned American artist Dale Chihuly, featuring an organic, trumpet-like purple and black-rimmed blossom atop a vibrant stem. Chihuly's Ikebana series is inspired by the traditional Japanese art of flower arrangement, combining asymmetrical blown-glass stems and floral components with contrasting colors and textures.

SUKELLUS II
reticello-technique, free-blown glass

Janna Rahunen
Finland

#jannarahunen #finland #glass #artglass #glasssculpture #sculpture #art #handmade #reticello #cane #abstract #contemporaryglassart #contemporaryart #Nuutajärvi
Janne Rahunen specializes in the reticello-technique of glass blowing. In reticello-technique glass, canes are used to create a net pattern and regular air bubbles. Most of reticello-sculptures are solid art works, which gives lot of optical dimensions to the sculptures. Janne Rahunen also works with silvered glass works. The silver-plated sculptures evoke thoughts about the conflict between nature and general development. - "We see nature and its protection as important, but we develop life and society to be more and more clinical and finer." Janne Rahunen (b. 1987) from Nuutajärvi is part of a young generation of glassmakers. Rahunen is originally from Vantaa and started making glass by studying at the Nuutajärvi Glass School from 2011 to 2016. Tavastia Vocational College's glass programme is the first degree-level vocational education programme in the field of glass in Finland and was launched in 1993 on the initiative of the late Oiva Toikka. Before glass, I worked in the pharmaceutical industry. But the job didn't feel like me and I was looking for my calling. I had previously studied poetry and played the drums and had an interest in working artistically. I wanted to work with my hands and came across glass online. I read a lot of literature on the subject and found a glass school in Nuutajärvi. I was accepted into the glass school, left my job and started studying in Nuutajärvi. His studies in poetry and later lectures by visual artist Jukka Teittinen at the Glass School taught him about approaches to art and how to interpret it.
