Hand Blown Glass Art

If you like Chihuly art, you’ll love this video.

my video of dale chihuly’s fantastical blown glass art, which he cleverly integrated into the lovely fairchild tropical botanical gardens in miami. the brilliantly colored, hand-blown glass sculptures actually look like they are a part of the natural surroundings. i organized the parts of the exhibit that i filmed into 10 exhibit areas, with names of the major pieces and series. enjoy 6 minutes of serene, beautiful art.

In this video you can see how blown glass is placed in a mold to shape the glass. This way you can get consistency in the glass which is especially needed when you are making a match set of glasses. This process is used in a production environment and not just a one-off process for hand blown glass art.

This is a very good video about how glass was made in the 1600s. I have visited this glass making demonstration and it is very informative.
