GINGER PLUM SEAFORM, 2009

Dale Chihuly's Seaform series consists of ribbed forms displayed in graceful ensembles that appear complex yet naturally elegant. " We are using gravity, centrifugal force, the heat, the fire, all of these different elements, and in many ways we are not totally in control. It's letting the glass also make the form," explains Chihuly regarding the principles of his glass-blowing process, as found especially in his Seaform series.

Ginger Plum Seaform is composed of two elements, one precariously embracing the other to set off a constellation of white, green, blue, and red colored spots scattered across their purple exteriors. Each piece features a double body wrap with an amber-colored interior and is accented with a delicate teal lip wrap.

This 2009 Portland Press Studio Edition measures approximately eleven inches across, with Chihuly's signature engraved on the smaller piece. Each Ginger Plum Seaform comes with a Plexiglas vitrine and a copy of Chihuly Seaforms, which includes forty- four full-color photographs and an extensive essay by art critic Joan Seeman Robinson.

Ginger Plum Seaform combines contemporary colors with classic form.
