Chihuly at Tennessee Aquarium

We went to Chattanooga for a few days and stopped at the Tennessee Aquarium and they have a gorgeous Chihuly glass exhibit.
Chihuly’s “Macchia” series, a large collection of unusually-shaped bowls that the artist says remind him of the deep sea, will be on display with the jellies at the Tennessee Aquarium. Taking note that the colors of stained glass windows look more vibrant with a foggy backdrop, Chihuly uses a layer of white glass to make the colors of his “Macchia” bowls maintain their vibrancy.
Here are pix of the Jellies and glass we took.





Thanks for visiting!
