David Gappa Exhibits at American Fine Art Gallery

David Gappa’s exhibit, titled “Spirit of Glass” will be showcased at the Amercian Fine Art Gallery, September 22nd from 2:00pm to 8:00pm in conjunction with the Dallas Fall Gallery Night.

Artist Statement: “My work is primarily inspired through sectional glimpses into our surroundings.  Objects within a space are equally important as the negative space the objects create, and it is my desire to infuse the viewer into a special realm of transparency and color.  As a viewer approaches a glass installation, I crave they are drawn into the vignettes of negative space.  I want the viewer to get lost in the simple complexity of form, shadow, and light, or enveloped within the hues of color that only Glass can emit.

For me, working with glass is the magical act of translating the ethereal into solid form.  The creation of each piece is a journey as I strive to trust in the path our creator chooses for me…a trail of color, form and function.”
