Collectors and art aficionados are cordially invited to preview new works by renowned contemporary glass artist Abby Modell at POSH Art Gallery, located in the Delray Marketplace of Delray Beach

 


Enjoy renowned glass artist Abby Modell’s new Galaxy Collection illustrating the movement and luminosity of the universe. The artist’s vision of celestial waterfalls and cosmic butterflies are interpreted throughout the collection which includes Wall Art, Sculptural Objects and LED Lighting. Modell specializes in hand-applied glass assemblages on three-dimensional surfaces, developed through her exploration of contemporary glass techniques.



Inspired by the reflections of the night sky, Modell’s creations combine saturated ombre color palettes with mirrored surfaces and Swarovski crystals to visually expand dimension. Icy star glass colors layered with clear and frosty hues are the focus of this new body of work. Refracted light, dazzling hues and contemporary designs transport the viewer through an imagined starry sky.



Abby Modell Contemporary Art Glass is proud to be a Swarovski Ingredient Brand Partner. Swarovski recognizes the quality and importance of Modell’s artistic work. Modell is proud to partner with a zero waste certified sustainable glass finishing studio committed to reducing environmental impact on our planet. By recirculating applied glass into many of Modell’s pieces during their creation, the studio honors and preserves the earth and our resources.




Collectors and art aficionados are invited to view new works by Abby Modell in an exhibition at Posh Art Gallery in Delray Beach. Posh Art Gallery is located within the Delray Marketplace at 9089 Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach, Florida 33446.
