Kaleidovisions

In all our efforts, our goal is to create art where form follows function. We begin each design by experimenting with mirrors that can be cut and configured to create an infinite number of unique kaleidoscopic illusions...all variations of triangles and squares. Then, we design a wood "delivery system". In each case, the wood on the outside reflects the mirror assembly inside. To make our scope interactive, we build oil-filled viewing chambers that contain our flame-worked glass, dichroic glass (for pizzazz), shells, and anything that helps to make a mesmerizing image. Success, for us, is when folks are attracted to our wood sculptures and then are amazed when they look inside
