The inspiration for Aquatic Cosmos is the motion of
nocturnal marine creatures whose movement excites
phosphorescent plankton to emit a soft sparkling light.

Aquatic Cosmos installations are comprised of up to
60 hand-sculpted solid forms produced using molten glass
with dichroic injections.

The installation at Albright College (Reading, PA)
measures nearly 18 feet high and is suspended by
aircraft cable from a metal frame crafted at Taylor Backes. 

Other versions have been installed at
Philadelphia (PA) City Hall and
exhibited at Philadelphia’s Snyderman Gallery
and at Somerhill Gallery in Durham, N.C.
