Blown glass by Stephen Rolfe Powell previously viewed at the @bocamuseum | Monarch Addiction Smith, 1992 | The radiant, swelling vessel form with elaborate, multi-colored mosaic patterns dominates Powell's work. His creative process involves fusing thousands of hand-cut glass beads to a cylinder of hot glass, which he then blows out into complex, multiple lobe shapes. Powell gives every work a common last name of Smith, Jones or Johnson as an ironic way of emphasizing the universality of their vessel forms. REF: Boca Raton Museum of Art | Acquired 2012.
