One of America’s most innovative artists, well-known for his pioneering works in glass using a signature vacuum-coating process, Larry Bell also creates mixed media collages using materials like aluminum, silicon monoxide, and coated papers, often combining them on canvas or paper to play with light and illusion. His collages apply the process to various films and papers to create vibrant, layered works that are both reflective and translucent, a technique also used in his glass sculptures, resulting in works that are a fusion of his sculptural work and a more traditional collage format.
