The Art of Satoshi Tomizu

Japanese Glass artist Satoshi Tomizu fabricates planets and dust trails by heating up glass. 

A traditional technique using heat energy and the talent of a man, he creates magnificent pieces of art.

While photographed here in a macro view, the pieces are actually quite small and include a small glass loop so each piece can be turned into a pendant hence the oblong shape.

Tomizu began working with heat-resistant glass at the age of 28, and spent years honing his craft, which has allowed him to grow into the skilled glass worker he is today.

Check out the videos below to see how they are made.
