Glass Sculptures Based On The Fibonacci Theory By Jack Storms
|
In 2012, Douglas Biro commissioned Storms to create a work of art that commemorates Derek Jeter's historic 3000th hit. The Optic Crystal Baseball Bat was designed from three thousand pieces of glass. The work is privately owned and on display in Jeter's home. The Carmel Valley Rotary Club commissioned Storms to create a sculpture as a gift to President of Nigeria Olusegun Obasanjo to mark the opening of the first blood bank in Africa.
Guardians of the Galaxy
In 2013, executives at Marvel Studios approached Storms about creating a unique glass cube for their upcoming film Guardians of the Galaxy. Storms received very little information about the plot of the film or how the cube would function in the storyline, but he researched comic book culture in determining the design. Works that were used on the set of the film were displayed at the Exclusive Collections Gallery in Beverly Hills in 2014. Some Marvel fans have speculated that the appearance of the Storms cube in the Guardians of the Galaxy foreshadows the upcoming feature film, The Avengers 2 which is rumored to be based on a "cosmic cube" or tesseract.
