Rest of the FEMINIQUE story
Glass artist, Harry Pollitt, describes the surprises unveiled by Feminique, his kiln cast glass sculpture. And shares the consequences of a disastrous crack he caused to his own piece.

Feminique
Pale Cobalt Blue and Purple colors intermingle throughout the sweep and curves of this 1′-9″ tall cast glass sculpture by Harry Pollitt.
Transcendence
Despite the years, my enormous effort and, at times agony, I ask “Where did you come from?” I recognize my newest glass sculpture would not exist without me. Yet, I know fully, it is detached from me. It is its own entity. Come meet Transcendence.
Fluid Dynamics
Fluid Dynamics dynamically showcased Three or so months ago, a designer presented Fluid Dynamics to a client. They loved it. Recently, an incredible, dramatic, dynamic (How else can I express it?) set of images arrived. I am floored, honored and appreciative of the collaboration between designer and collector that enables me to share this showcase …
GP-2
A spiral cast glass sculpture with a quizzical name, GP-2 is a commission piece with a challenging request from the Collector. Progress images included.
Mainsail glass billows in the wind.
As though billowed by the wind, Mainsail races to join Pollitt Small Treasures ensemble. An apricot-colored glass sculpture, the “mast” reaches 1′-2” high, with luminosity that looks like it comes from the sun.
Aura
A hyacinth color and dark edging produced by natural light gives this Pollitt Small Treasure the look of an aura. The 12” x 4”dia glass sculpture delivers quiet, but powerful drama.
Capricious
It’s an oxymoron – this movement-driven glass sculpture created in vaporous cobalt blue by Harry Pollitt. Pushing technical bounds with deep excavations and tight overlaps, Come see it.
Pinnacle
Lots of descriptors fit my newest cast glass sculpture…cantilevered, precarious, a challenge, jade green. What it cannot call itself is “meant to be.” But six re-builds later, I call it pretty cool. Engineering disguised as aesthetics. And not easy to capture, so I’ll post a few extra photos shortly. Let me know what you think.
