(the link being by way of Chihuly/Pilchuck; her father spent 5 years at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaux-Arts_de_Paris https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaux-Arts_de_Paris which probably didn't hurt...)
EDIT: https://linotagliapietra.com/artwork/tasmania https://linotagliapietra.com/artwork/tasmania is an excellent material shadow of Hesse's glass bead game. The reticello uses cane laid down upon independent axes, a wedge product of canes if you will, and then this work layers those in the remaining spatial dimension —alongside the bubble as neutral element? or dreamtime?— to produce an aesthetic effect evoking its namesake.
If we were playing the gbg with textual quotations instead of murrine, one might almost imagine this work as proceeding in a Hegelian manner: the first axis of cane as thesis, the second axis as antithesis, and the perpendicular excursion as synthesis?
