Waiting On A Summer Breeze
Caryn Brown
An eye-catching piece that celebrates the simple pleasures of summer, this contemporary art glass sculpture is replete with color and pattern. The work is created through an intricate process where hundreds of glass strips are hand cut, arranged on edge, and fused in a kiln to form a solid sheet. The interaction between the individual pieces brings fluid movement and depth to the design, encouraging the viewer to engage with the work and look closer.
This piece is designed for indoor use and should be placed near a window or light source to maximize the interplay of light and shadow.
Each piece is one of a kind and will have slight variations.
Dimensions: 20" x 15"

About the Artist
Caryn Brown
Working in kiln glass, Caryn Brown has learned to trust her creativity and what she knows about the science and physics of glass. From concept to creation, Brown actively manipulates the fundamental materials of sheet glass, frit (ground glass) and rod/stringers. Her work is then surrendered to the kiln where the magic of heat, often in excess of 1500 degrees, works to change the raw materials into art.
Living in the Indiana Dunes National Park (United States,) Brown has access to natural landscapes that includes miles of beach along the southern shore of Lake Michigan. From sand dunes to lake shore, marsh to areas populated with trees, there is nature all around me. There is the fierceness of the winter winds across the Lake Michigan and the gentle breezes of summer. This nature, in all its forms, has the ability to bring about a calm serenity within her. She strives to reference that sense of energy, beauty and calm in the pieces she creates.
