stilly - there was a touring Chihuly exhibit that came through Dayton a few years ago. Absolutely amazing stuff. The Dayton Art Institute (museum) bought a few huge pieces of his that still remain there.

He's one of my favorite contemporary artists.

And actually, from what I understand, he really ONLY does the paintings now. He lost the use of one of his eyes and just directs the work on the glass pieces, but doesn't actually do any of the actual work any more.

There is a spiritual reference to fire in Chinese philosophy. It's part of the Five Elements:

In my bodywork, we apply these all the time and just in everyday life. There's a great book called "Energy Medicine" by Donna Eden that shows people how they can tap into these elements and other aspects of energy and spirtuality. We can heal ourselves and each other through all facets by energy healing.

Categories are sometimes needed for people to help them to integrate information, but at the end of the day, it just "is."
