Immerse yourself in a spectacular exhibition exploring colour, light, and form by one of the world’s foremost artists working in glass today.

Created by sand, fire, and human breath, these brilliantly coloured works of art produce a magical, sensory experience that will never be forgotten.

See the exhibition in Toronto. On display until January 2, 2017.

Dale Chihuly, an American sculptor, has mastered the alluring, translucent and transparent qualities of ice, water, glass and neon, to create works of art that transform the viewer experience.

Symmetry

Symmetry is a property of certain geometrical objects that appears the same when mirrored or reflected along an axis. This axis has to cross the shape through the middle of that object dividing into equal halves.

The precise notions of symmetry have various measures and operational definitions. For example, symmetry may be observed

• with respect to the passage of time;
• as a spatial relationship;
• through transformations such as rotation;
• through other kinds of transformations;^[1]
• as an aspect of scientific models, language, music and even knowledge itself.^[2][3]

Asymmetry

Asymmetry is the absence of symmetry. It is best defined like that because symmetry is relatively rare, and all other objects are asymmetric.
