Glass Artist Masayo Odahashi Reveals Universal Truths Through Inner Beauty
“I am creating compositions to make people aware once more of these inchoate things we have in common.” So says Masayo Odahashi. This Japanese artist’s kilned-glass works often feature delicate figurines whose inner luster is cloaked in a rice paper-like fragility. In one exhibit, Odahashi says that “you will find glass that fills a vessel or body and faintly shines some light through cracks and peeled away portions on the surface of that body, as if to indicate what exists within.” Want to see what Odahashi means? Take a detour (or book a room!) On the 21st floor.
