About the Item

Please allow a three month turnaround time for piece to be made. About the Geologic Editions: The Geologic Editions are studies for Colorado Cascade Mural. David pieced together bits of the original rock and ice castings to try various combinations. Texture composites were molded and cast in colors that were part of the series of developing glasses for casting natural textures based on the original ice molding at Palmer Station, Antarctica. The guiding principle is to see the layers of texture that in turn, show the time qualities of the environment: universe, geologic and quotidian time—so present when you view these pieces, especially in natural sunlight that alters from moment to moment, and changes with the seasons. About David Ruth David Ruth is an Oakland, California based glass sculptor that has been making large-scale cast glass sculptures and architectural features for over 30 years. Often featuring bright colors and contrasting polished surfaces with rough textures, the work has been featured in architecture, museums, and in galleries around the world. He holds degrees in History from University of California at Santa Cruz and glass from California College of the Arts. Over the years he has taught various workshops and classes in glass techniques and is considered an innovator in glass casting.
