Glass & Clay Sculpture in Starbrick’s Window

 

 

All the sculptures awaiting transport

All the sculptures awaiting transport

It seemed like I had forever when I made the commitment to put a display of my new glass work in the window of Starbrick Gallery.  I kept making more thinking I’d never fill up that huge space, but as I grew the collection of silica based life forms the window space miraculously got smaller and it all came to a very nice intersection if I do say so myself.

I’ve never mounted a show before so I was pretty wigged out for a few weeks in advance, Jay got a lot of work done in his shop.  I knew it would take a few trips to transport the sculptures because they are not packing friendly so I started on a Wednesday morning.  Naturally, when I arrived the old window display was still in place.  It didn’t take me to long to empty it out as the coffee and adrenaline were kicking in.  After picking out the pedestals and wrestling them into the space I decided they needed a coat of paint.  Two trips later my painting,  arranging, signage and lighting were done.  The work is on display!

The show was supposed to be up for a month but the Starbrick Gallery needs two weeks to paint the rest of their pedestals and place tea cups upon them.

I will find another venue and post an update.  I am also posting all the pieces in the store one at a time.  Free delivery in a 100 mi radius of Rutland, OH.  If you are farther afield we can negotiate.
