The Glass Tapestry of David Alcala
by Gil Reynolds
It’s not easy to turn the tables on established art techniques, but sometimes 90 degrees can make a big difference. Consider the work of David Alcala. Instead of working his designs flat on a table, he turns his art work 90 degree up on its edge to create some of the most unique landscapes ever made with fused glass. Believe it or not most of what one is viewing are horizontal layers of color frit, much like the sedimentary layers of the earths crust. This technique is totally revolutionary yet so natural.
