“What art does — maybe what it does most completely — is tell us, make us feel that what we think we know, we don’t. There are whole worlds around us that we’ve never glimpsed.” Greil Marcus — Wednesday June 22nd — —

Glass blowing

Love this video by Crane.tv showing the innovative glass blowing technique developed by Omer Arbel for Bocci to make the 28 chandelier. It showcases an unconventional glass craft approach which involves reversing the direction of airflow (out of the glass matrix instead of into it), resulting in a unique form in each iteration of the process. The video is shot on site at Bocci’s Vancouver based glass blowing atelier. More great videos reporting art, design, fashion, lifestyle and travel on Crane.tv
