Blue Ether
Witness the mesmerizing dance of "Blue Ether," a kinetic sculpture that captures the essence of the celestial blue. Two gleaming silver circles, nestled within each other, create a hypnotic swirl. At its heart, a rare vintage blue teardrop glass prism takes center stage, pulsating with a captivating depth of color as it sways gently. Above the swirling blue hangs a clear glass prism.
Below the sculpture's centerpiece are three vintage glass prisms. Two of them are clear; the third is a rare blue glass prism. At the end of the tail is a placard that reads, "A wise woman once said, fuck this shit. And she lived happily ever after."
The chain that suspends each element of "Blue Ether" is a series of silver stars.
More than just a sculpture, "Blue Ether" is a captivating kinetic experience that brings the power and beauty of the cosmos to life. See how "Blue Ether" moves HERE.

Installation:
Your one-of-a-kind artwork is original with vintage glass prisms and is created by Ell McEvory. Display your art indoors in a location with direct sunlight for optimal effect. It’s designed to be held correctly by gravity. Locate the metal form seams; these should face downwards when hung. All of the elements are designed to dance in the sunlight.
Gentle care:
To clean the vintage prisms, lightly mist a soft cloth with glass cleaner. Gently wipe each prism with the cloth. The metal forms can be dusted with a soft, dry cloth.
