Mom, Kiira and I went to the DeYoung Museum yesterday to catch the Chihuly exhibit. It was amazing! And just the right length for Kiira's first museum outing. There were about eight rooms filled with blown glass. Sure, some of you are thinking a vase, a bowl etc. Oh no, the first room was a glass forest....
onto gi-gundus (pronounced jigoondus) flowers...
onto antique boats filled with intricate flowers and balls....
onto a garden of glass.
There were many other rooms as well but these were my favorites.
We first saw Chihuly's works while living in England. He did an exhibit in Kew Gardens. It was breathtaking to walk around outside to be surprised by these amazing glass sculptures. I'll try to dig up a photo of that.
