|
CHRISTAL CLARK - CHATARD HAS BEEN CREATING UNIQUE FUSED GLASS ART FOR MORE THAN 12 YEARS. HER WORK IS FEATURED IN IN SHOPS AND GALLERIES AROUND THE UNITED STATES. |
FUSED GLASS IS DEFINED BY THE PROCESS OF HEATING LAYERS OF GLASS TOGETHER IN A KILN. THE TEMPERATURE IN WHICH THE GLASS IS FIRED TOGETHER IS APPROXIMATELY 1500 DEGREES TO 1600 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT . THE DICHROIC GLASS IS MADE BY A VERY ELABORATE PROCESS . THE GLASS MUST BE COMPATIBLE IN ORDER TO BE FUSED TOGETHER. THE BLANK SHEET OF GLASS IS THEN PLACED IN A VACUUM CHAMBER DEVOID OF AIR AT WHICH POINT THE GLASS IS THEN COATED WITH TITANIAN, GOLD , SIVLER AND VARIOUS METALS TO ACHEIVE THE DESIRED COLORS. WHEN LIGHT IS TRANSMITTED ON OR THROUGH THESE PIECES THE EFFECTS ARE QUITE STUNNING. |
