>Tim Tate has a big show coming up at SOFA Chicago – (opening next week at Navy Pier – in Maurine Littleton Gallery – Space 720) He will be unveiling his newest works that continue integration of new media – his cast & blown glass features LED technology, sometimes with the LEDs in the blacklight range, illuminating uranium glass . The work is made with cast glass peace symbols, flowers, Ganesh heads, toadstools and more. The top finial is a cast glass hookah smoking caterpiller. The piece is lighted internally with black light LED’s. This gives the cast pieces a truly wonderful inner black light glow.
