Vase by Mark Peiser, 1978
01
Artifact Overview
Mark Peiser transformed the world of glass through a technique he devised which involves drawing with melted glass canes of various colors on molten glass. He encapsulates these images between layers of glass to create the 3D effect of his "Paperweight Vase" series (1975-1981). Landscape imagery is a frequent subject for this series.
