Hello Lightning Tamers!
I'll be working my new job soon! I'm not sure how that's going to affect everything, but it's a definite upgrade from where I've been working.

Hello Lightning Tamers!
This weeks Weekly Picks are of the plasma, Neon, and Light works displayed during the Glass Art Society Conference in Murano, Itlay at Fondazione Berego Exhibtion Space by Berengo Studio.The GAS conference opened up Murano in a way that has not been before, with 1800 glass artists and enthusiasts on the island. Originally this exhibiton was only scheduled to be up during the Conference, but the owner of the Exhibtion Space was so amazed by the works that will be on display until November. We've made quite an impact with our small exhibition. Many of attendees and locals alike have never seen anything like it. The use of plasma neon is brand new experince to those working within the framework of "traditional" glassblowing as a craft and artistic medium.
Also note, that I've split all the images/video form the exhibtion into three posts per instagrams image/video limit.
While Taming Lighting is a Neon and Plasma dominant interest, I've chosen to include those works wthin the exhibtion using other forms of light. Enjoy! Percy Echols II Taming ⚡Lightning
“WITH MOST OF THE WORK I MAKE, I TRY TO FIND THE BALANCE BETWEEN SUBTLETY AND LOUDNESS. SO, I TRY TO MAKE THE PIECES SOFT AND QUIET, BUT I HOPE PEOPLE CAN SIT WITH THEM AND REALLY THINK ABOUT THEM. THEY’RE LOUD IN THE WAY THAT YOU CARRY THEM WITH YOU AND REVISIT LATER.”- STEPHANIE EXPLAINS.
Hello Lightning Tamers!
Getting things squared away and ready for my Trip to Italy, where I'll be staying in Venice and taking part in an exhibition and attending the Glass Art Society Conference in Murano! Very excited and Anxious about the trip, as it will be my first time out of the country. It's an opportunity to checkout out world, while finally meeting some of my guests on the podcast, and hopefuly find time to record some new ones. There won't be any weekly picks next week, i'll be posting on instram and here plasma/neon related stuff, but also you can follow me on @glass.percy and homepage blog should I find time to post. No gurantees!
