Very interesting site. I especially liked the Native American Killer Whale in glass, that shows the soul of the animal in the classic Northwest Coast way–yet utilizing the glass medium.

the entry by Rozlyn Debussy really reminds me of the pelvis. This is a photography show, and great.

The piece by Martin Oliver needs to be seen to really appreciate it. Oliver, who is a professor at the University of Washington, is now working in multiple media, to include glass, metal, paper, and wood. Check out some of his work at his website: http://www.marvinoliver.com/index.html

If the “Dairy House” is an actual structure it is an illuminated jewel. Is it real?

Yes, it is a very short list in my eye.
The Dairy House by this Catling woman is one in a million.
I only wish I could move in immediately.

The “attracted to light” piece is a complete knock off the “Moth to a flame” by To22 from 2005. Check http://www.to22.net

I think the house should win, but some of them are not so good, because with out photography tricks, or lighting values some of the work on here would not even exist in reality, or look as it does in the photos.

I think this sould be a glass photography contest instead.

Just an opinion

Dairy House is for real, a beutiful project by a extrememly talented person.
Infact she doesn’t use any renderings in her design process.
It’s been awarded the RIBA Awards this year.
