The Iridescent Dimension

Typology: Sculptural Glass Installation
Artist/Designer: Katya Hsiao Ching Cheng
Material: Glass

“The object, thus worked or ‘alchemized,’ carries a memory of sorts: one that creates the final object through its chain of existence(Cotnoir 2017, 51).” In the glass work, it reflects the iridescent light as the goddess Iris brings it, owing to the interference and refraction of light and its nacre-like curved surfaces, revealing the mesmerising beauty of iridescence. It carries all that is scientific about iridescence, and all that it is, represents the imagery of iridescence.
