Chihuly’s installations of Fiori demonstrate the artist’s interest in organic, free flowing forms, scale, and the massing of color to affect environments with his work. Compositions range from simple groupings of Reeds, Eelgrass or Marlins to hundreds of elements brought together as Mille Fiori (Italian for “a thousand flowers”).

“A lot of work I do is nature-inspired or looks like it might come from nature, but I don’t look specifically at something to make it.”
