Night of Celebration
Night of Celebration is a wall-mounted glass sculpture. The work joins antique glass goblets with a freely blown glass form. A mold of an antique goblet was pressed onto the heated body, leaving a concave negative imprint on the surface. Hot glass appears to pour from the goblets, suggesting the continuity of tradition through time. After cooling, the form was cut and polished, then coated with a special solution for a pearl effect and baked again. The finished piece measures 430 by 200 by 500 millimeters.
