GLASS
Glass fusing is a very old art form focused on the beauty of light playing with glass: it’s color, shape, and degree of transparency. The process of creating fused glass art involves cutting and arranging pieces of glass on a flat surface, then using a kiln to heat the glass pieces to high temperatures. The pieces of glass melt together and fuse into a single, cohesive piece, which can then be molded into a new shape that shows off the vibrant colors and engaging designs in the glass. The result of glass fusing is eye-catching art can play and dance in light.
