Visual Description

This about 20-foot tall sculpture features nearly three dozen wavy glass disks the size of pizzas displayed on a grid of rectangular white frames. The translucent blown glass disks are bright and colorful, ranging from golden yellows and oranges to bright blues, deep reds, and purples. Each disk features concentric rings and scalloped edges, but the distinct waves, twists, and ring patterns make each one unique. Displayed in front of a two-story window, the colorful glass disks resemble open flower heads fluttering in the breeze.
