Dale Chihuly also finds ideas in nature for his glass sculptures. His work "Red Reeds" was placed in the museum's reflecting pool. Lights make it glow in the water at night. The artist says the glass itself is the strongest guiding force of his work.
The extraordinary play of light is most evident in his famous "Persian Ceiling." It is made of a thousand colorful glass pieces. "Persian Ceiling" hangs over the heads of museum goers, with light coming from behind the object. Some people lie down on the floor for the best view.
Dale Chihuly works with his team at Chihuly Studio in the state of Washington, where he grew up. The artist is 71 years old, and has no plans to retire anytime soon. However, there will be an end to Chihuly at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. The show closes February 10th.这位艺术家也从印第安人的毯子和篮筐那儿获得了灵感。弗吉尼亚州美术馆展出了奇胡利的部分类似藏品。这家美术馆也收藏了一些由他创作的逼真的玻璃篮筐。
戴尔·奇胡利也会从大自然中为他的玻璃雕塑寻找灵感。他的作品《红芦苇》便被放置于美术馆的倒影池中。晚上，在灯光的作用下，这件作品会在水中闪闪发光。而这位艺术家表示引导他创作的无上动力是玻璃本身。
奇胡利对于光线的非凡掌控力在他的著名作品《波斯风格的天花板》中体现的尤为明显。这件作品由一千块彩色玻璃构成。《波斯风格的天花板》悬挂于来美术馆参观者们的头顶上方，光线从作品的背面（向下）透出来。有些参观者直接躺在地板上以寻求最佳的欣赏角度。
戴尔·奇胡利和他的团队一起在奇胡利工作室工作。工作室位于华盛顿州，那里也是他长大的地方。这位艺术家已经71岁了，近期却没有退休的打算。奇胡利在弗吉尼亚州美术馆的艺术展将于二月十日结束。
