Contemporary Glass Art
The exhibit I went to the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art to see was called Divergent Materiality: Contemporary Glass Art. There were some very creative and beautiful pieces in this exhibit all using glass in different ways.
The piece at top made me chuckle a bit. It's called "Aristocrap" by artist Matt Eskuche. It features all kinds of everyday things that appear to be silver plated but, it's all glass.
To the left is a piece by Vivian Wang and it is called Rooster Princess.
This last one is called "Seeker" by Lucy Lyon.
The third exhibit at the museum was called Mutual Reality: Art on the Edge of Technology. That one was really impossible to photograph. It contained a series of interactive exhibits. I had fun making shapes change and music play simply by moving and touching.
If you live in the Phoenix area, I highly recommend seeing these three exhibits. It's something to do inside a cool museum on these hot summer days.

Beautiful. The second piece reminds me of Christmas ornaments.
I can only imagine the precautions that need to be taken by the artist not to break anything.
Amazing glass art, very delicate material to work with.
Absolutely Stunning - Well Done
Cheers
Oh wow! That's very clever glass blowing Sharon, I would love to be in the Phoenix area to see this exhibition ✨
P.s. you are a very good detective, love the way you deduced the correct reflection 😊
Nice! Definitely different from what we usually see when we think of glass art. Does Ellen Abbott read your blog? I might turn her on to this post -- she's a glass artist.
Seeker particularly appeals to me.
Absolutely gorgeous and beautifully photographed.
That Rooster Princess is fabulous! I assume the clothing is made from clay - I was trying to read the tag.
