Glass Sculptures by Dale Patrick Chihuly

American glass sculptor Dale Patrick Chihuly creates these amazingly beautiful glass artworks.

His fascination with abstract nature forms comes from his mother's garden in Tacoma, Washington.

Chihuly uses nature as a setting for his pieces, and tries to create his pieces as though they are part of nature.

"I want my work to appear as though it came from nature so if someone found it… they might think it belonged there."

Although it is not widely known, some components of Chihuly's installations are made of an acrylic-type material rather than glass.
