Description

1/40s @ f/5.6, ISO 6400, Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8 @ 24mm.
One of the magnificent glass sculptures of Dale Chihuly at his exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Glass Forest #6 presents light sources and glass which are the basic elements of the works and environments Chihuly creates with neon. These fluorescent structures enable him to experiment with colour, scale and line in space. Dozens of slumped spheres rear upwards like germinating seeds. The piece is made of blown white glass filled with argon gas and neon, which produces the shades of pink. The ethereal silhouettes looming up in the darkness create a breathtakingly eerie effect.
