Pretty Plastic

Community Created Chihuly-Inspired Art

"Pretty Plastic" celebrates the transformative power of everyday materials, showcasing a stunning collection of art pieces inspired by the intricate glassworks of Dale Chihuly.

The exhibit features a diverse range of pieces, from delicate sculptures that mimic Chihuly’s signature organic forms to bold, vibrant installations that play with light and texture. Each piece emphasizes the versatility of plastic as a medium, offering a fresh perspective on the environmental potential of materials that are often overlooked. By upcycling plastic waste, these works engage in a larger conversation about reducing waste and rethinking the lifecycle of materials.

Visitors will experience both intricate, single-artist pieces and dynamic, collaborative works that reflect the power of collective creativity. The collaborative pieces, created through group efforts, highlight how diverse perspectives and skills can come together to produce art that transcends individual boundaries.

"Pretty Plastic" invites viewers to see beyond the material’s typical use and embrace its artistic potential, while also encouraging a dialogue on sustainability in the art world and beyond. This exhibit is a celebration of artistic innovation, community collaboration, and the beauty found in unexpected materials.
