2016 ROM. CHIHULY. Laguna Torcello Ex at the Royal Ontario Museum (4K, images)

Laguna Torcello creates an intricate garden of glass. Introduced in 2012, this is part of Chihuly’s long-standing series, Mille Fiori (“thousand flowers” in Italian). Visitors can stroll around this garden, taking in an outstanding range of Chihuly’s forms. The installation’s name references a lagoon island in Venice, Italy, the artist’s favorite place in the world, and pays respect to that city’s glass-makers.
