My students and the students at Ecole Victoria School, through a grant from the Sask Arts Board, are working on pop bottle chandeliers, inspired by the art of
Dale Chihuly. I am doing an "Artist in the Schools" project that partners students with the Nuit Blanche - Saskatoon Event that is happening September 30 in Saskatoon. We are making as many pop bottle chandeliers as we can. At a recent preview event we were able to show off the first of our projects.
It takes many hours and many bottles to create a piece but when they are in the lights they are spectacular.
