"Ascension" by Mark Peiser, 1987
01
Artifact Overview
"For me, technique is not cheap -- it's imperative," asserts Mark Peiser. This contrasts with the comment made by Harvey Littleton, the founder of the studio glass movement, that, "Technique is cheap." Peiser creates innovative technical processes that express his ideas. His Innerspace Series (1983-1994) explores how to compose a solid three dimensional image within a mass of a different color.
