Japanese artist Rui Sasaki captures the changeableness of the weather in her stunning glass sculptures. Sasaki uses phosphorescent glass that helps her to store light. Phosphorescent also makes the sculptures glow in the dark. From cascading raindrops to kitchen utensils to abstract objects, these pieces appear like blue-tinted spectrums.
At their brightest, the phosphorescent crystals are tinted in green before turning blue. Visitors won’t be able to see anything at first entering the gallery. But if they remain long enough in the gallery, they will see the sculpture gleaming weakly in the darkness. Explained Sasaki.
