SPACELAB: An Interstellar Exhibit of Glass Art
On display at Philadelphia’s National Liberty Museum from July 6 – September 7, 2018

SPACELAB is a one-of-a-kind showcase of glass art that explores the great unknown – outer space. This collection of artwork examines human relationships with the universe, including space travel; extraterrestrial beings and intergalactic discoveries; the vastness and mystery of space; and much more. The innovative nature of glassmaking makes it the perfect medium for this subject, which has captured imaginations since the dawn of humankind. The featured work ranges from whimsical and mystical to elegant and awe-inspiring. WGS’ Laura Beth Konopinski is one of the featured artists in the exhibit. 

Laura Beth Konopinski; "her Inner space given Out"; Blown and recycled glass, torchworked and sculpted, enamel, preserved organic materials, 4.5in x 4.5in x 8.5in
