Optical Glass Sculptures By Fine Art Glass Artist Jack Storms

in #life • 6 years ago (edited)

The intense cold-glass process employed by Jack Storm can take up to 24 weeks for each contemporary glass sculpture to come to life. The process begins at the heart of the design, by creating a core of lead crystal which is cut, polished and laminated creating reflective mirrors. When wrapped in optical glass, the refraction of light as it passes through the glass creates rainbows of hypnotic color. The drawn out process of repetitive cutting, grinding and polishing requires intense passion, rigid self discipline, and more blood sweat and tears than any artisan could wrap their mind around. The results, are mind boggling works of contemporary glass art.
        This video demonstrates the cold glass process Jack uses to make his work. I hope you enjoy it, please share if you do!

    Wow! What a great sculpture work, I never knew I could see such a thing here on Steemit, that's indeed a great artwork and u must confess, it really made my day, though, am an artist too, but I do more of pencil work, you can kindly see my blog and see for yourself, but once again, you have really done a great job here.

              Jack tells a super inspiring story. For anyone out there with a degree in art listen up!DlI think the most amazing part of his process is the non use of heat to manipulate and sculp the glass. Takes another level of patience to be able to work like this!
