The metallic glass sculptures by Jeff Zimmerman, an artist born in Kentucky, is full of colorful and shiny dimension. Taking on abstract organic shapes, each object looks as though it was accidentally crushed just before being recovered. Yet the wrinkles in the midsection of these designs simply give them more personality, especially since no two are alike.
Although the metallic glass sculptures appear to be made out of metal, they are simply given a deceptive finish. Topped with pale pinks, bright yellows and more, the metallic glass sculptures are a great alternative to Zimmerman's past work. Although there is still a natural undertone, the pieces are much more decorative and come in smaller sizes so as to fit into any space.
