Scrolling through some of my pictures from the past I came up on a wonderful event that Goose surprised me with: a day at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA) for Mother’s Day. What’s the big hubbub? Well, the special exhibit they were showing at the time was that of (Dale) Chihuly. With over 200 collections world wide, I was so very lucky to be able to see one of his major travelling exhibitions (thank you from the bottom of my heart Goose! It was awesome!)
It was another ‘mystery adventure’ only this time the mystery was on me!
The colors, the forms, the exhibit as a whole was an overload of the senses. Glass blown in all shapes sizes… some that dangled from the ceiling while others were floor to ceiling in height. This particular display (shown above) was actually a small portion of the exhibit which was in the ceiling above us, so I was looking up at these plates of glass-shells of sorts.
The party hat lemon left all other lemons envious.
The delicate carvings, while still maintaining the enormous size, cannot be described adequately and must be seen with your own eyes.
A giant monster from your glass garden awaits to wrap you in its tentacles and eat you alive!
If you ever have the opportunity to see his work, you simply must go. Pictures and words do not do any of it justice. Just say yes, who knows where it will take you!
How awesome that you were able to see his work! Thank you for stopping by our blog and following it! Hopefully it keeps you interested!
