Sculptural Glass
Sculptural glass refers to three-dimensional artworks created from glass, often emphasizing form, texture, and color. Artists use various techniques, such as blowing, casting, and fusing, to manipulate the material into unique shapes. This medium allows for a wide range of expressions, from abstract forms to representational figures.
Many sculptural glass pieces are displayed in galleries and public spaces, showcasing the interplay of light and transparency. Notable artists in this field include Dale Chihuly and Lino Tagliapietra, who have contributed significantly to the popularity and innovation of glass as a sculptural medium.
