- Martin Blank and his team have developed a highly specialized array of tools and techniques in order to create life-sized human figures out of solid glass. In this video we see the team creating a torso out of Glass and then how the torso is incorporated with other elements to create a pair of figures suspend in space.
The project begins by layering clear, blue and green glasses with silver leaf. This mass is then transferred to a new pipe which is locked into a special track system and rotated by a large metal wheel. A new mass of glass is added for the hips and buttocks, and then the entire mass is covered with more fresh glass from the furnace. Martin shapes each bit of glass into the form he wants until he decides the sculpture is complete.
The torso is then wheeled into a 1,000 degree Fahrenheit oven where it will eventually cool down. Before it can be broken off the pipe though, it must rotate for 15 minutes so the glass has time to stop moving. It is then broken off and fire-polished, before it begins its week long journey to room temperature.
The completed sections are cut and polished to length and then suspended above the floor in the studio, before being installed in the client's home.

Всегда восхищалась мастерами огня и стекла ,смелые и талантливые люди.,красивые ,уникальные и неповторимые вещи получаются. Благодарю Вас за видео.
А мине больчи нравяса хлёпцы сантехники. Ани сибя горда виличають "начальниками гавна и пара".👍👍👍🛠️
А что в итоге у них получилось?
I always respected glass blowing as it is easily the most dangerous form of art. I can only imagine the number of burns each of these folks have endured over their lives.
My hands bare the marks🥲👍🏻
Turning metal or wood on a lathe is more dangerous.
I worry about them... Its so so hooot!!!
Ive heard that there's a chance you can burst your lungs because of the super hot air when you're blowing so like... it's gorgeous work, incredible skill and super dangerous art
I will bet that every woman sitting inside of an office this cold winter that thinks the thermostat feels like it's set to 55 is thinking that they would love to change jobs right now.
I was so fascinated with the coordinated collaboration that I forgot what you were aiming to achieve.
Excellent demonstration of what it takes to produce ArtWORK.
Как приятно смотреть на творческих людей, они сами шедевры, мастера. Успехов.
I REALLY LOVE HOW SUPPORTIVE THEY ALL ARE WITH EACH OTHER....MUST MAKE FOR A GREAT WORK PLACE... AND THE ART IS AMAZING ..
AGREED 👍 THEY SOUND LIKE THEY ARE HAVING A GREAT TIME....
I like that, too! I like how they ran and protected each other’s hands when turning!
One hiccup and you have a pile of glass shards. The level of attention it takes to not make a single mistake is impressive. Kudos to your whole team.
Love that radio station in the background halfway through the video.....80's soft rock....easy listenin.
After watching all that it took to make. I wish they would have showed the finished art piece more. Well done to the artists involved.
Are you happy youtube I finally watched it
Alejanxro Sanchez can you cast obsidians? 😂

@@gianangjful your last name sounds like Vagina jelly
It'll be back lol
I didn't like the peace personally. It lacked a certain jenesequa. Why didn't you just make a peace that look like an entire body and then drop it on the ground?
Wow what a great team! Wonderful to see you all work together and encourage each. Beautiful end piece!
I am in awe about the foresight of the artists who can turn granules of glass and metal foil into a blob of molten glass which turns out as a magnificent work of art. And look at it shine with the correct lighting. I am in awe.
I call your thumbnail great balls of fire
All I could read was “glass artist Martin blank and team create a human t”and I thought the t was for testicles
🤣😂😂😂😝
Yes. And you beat me to it)
Man didn’t matter what you guys are making I love to see the joking around yet the team work and safety is beautiful
Teamwork makes the dream work. Thanks for watching, we do have fun.
"Gunna take my poodle out for Strudel"
I thought it made sense at the time. Now, I don't know.
Whether on not it made sense. It was hilarious. Seems like y'all would be a fun team to work with. Strudels and poodles and all
That got me so badl
Beat me to it
Gunna take my melons out for lemons
THIS is an experience! A combination of artistry and team
sport.
Very very dangerous!
Happy the shirt saved your life more than once.
I know alchemy is traditionally known as transforming metals but this has to be part of the sacred art. I can't thank you enough for sharing, not just the work of art but you guys as a group ...... I guess a feel for the atmosphere? I don't know, I'm struggling for the words and coming up blank, I love this so much!
You've got to be shiting me. WOW!!! Other than the final result looking fantastic,watching you guys handle it so gracefully along with all that teamwork made it so satisfying. I thought it would collapse under it's own weight but you guys nailed it!
They built that studio to make that kind of work. It is amazing, I agree.
@@GregOwen-gmanonfire nice jeffery dahmer homage… body bent back. Inverted spine crack.
Forbidden honey.
Spicy honey
Haven’t heard 38 Special in FOREVER…brought back some great memories!
Such amazing and beautiful work, Thank you for sharing your art 🎨 with us all 👍👍👍👍
The art of glassmaking is such an under-appreciated subject. It demands so much talent and expertise. Respect.
The teamwork is phenomenal & they are all really positive & keep each other motivated. Good vibes. That's awesome! Beautiful glass work too! Fascinating to watch!
I bet that kinda thing would be important to some extent there. Considering their moving giant molting glass balls
Me gustan sus obras de arte 🎨 😁 👍🏻
😊
This is an unbelievably beautiful work of art!
In the thumbnail it looks like balls
The guy with the angry faces still does
U picture what you want to see if u see balls then maybe u want balls lol jk
It does
Lol yup
idk it kinda looks like the tip of the penis
Knowing my luck, stupidity, and grace, I would end up smacking myself in the face with the molten glass on the first go if I tried that.
Yep me 2 lol
Lol
lol !
At least we know that there are people who are aware of their dumbassness
MrAtown3057 I'm not only aware of it, I take joy out of it and make fun if it every chance I get.
Все кто работает со стеклом - волшебники🎩🎩🎩👏👏👏👏👏
That is incredibly beautiful! You people did a awesome job.
Anyone else see a giant shaft and testies for the thumbnail?
jonh hancock what does that mean?
@@emeraldvirden4022 that was fucken hilarious
Lmao that's what I saw! Giant cock n balls
Nailed it
Maybe balls but are you gay because that shouldnt be popping up in your head my guy, "shafts" dont look like that so i would go to the doctor
OMG! Y'all are phenomenal! I've always been fascinated with glassblowing and I'm "blown" away! You have another fan. ❤❤
on a serious note... awesome communication and movement between the crew to ensure safety
I'm loving the music in the background. The 80's had the best music.
That’s effing amazing, and the final result is awe-inspiring.
Seeing all the team work that goes into this is awesome, kinda sucks it only gets one guys name as the artist.
Вы - команда, конечно, молодцы. У меня нет радости от созерцания произведения... Только чувствуется профессионализм в создании шедевра. 🤔
What a hard working artists team❤
Fiquei muito imprecionada com sua escultura,feita completamente manual e ficou muito boa. Parabens pelo trabalho apesar de toda quentura.
Wow all that HOT HARD WORK you all did really payed off. 14:10. When I started to see it come together I saw nothing but pure artistic amazement and delight it is so so beautiful. Thank you.
Love 💜
My two dream jobs are astronaut and glass artist. Glass work is the most sensitive, beautiful and satisfying . And the team work and dedication in glass work is what i love the most.. Lots of respect to all these talented hard working artists..
I still can't belive they did all that in 15.03 minutes. AMAZING!
I wish we had as much good vibes at work. 😢
hannah weaver these people are making a living doing what they enjoy... Makes a huge difference
best quote in here: "ill take my poodle out for stroodle"
I did not know that young people still listened to real music. That made me happy.
I could watch glass artists 24/7/365 anyway, but this was extra incredible!
Great vid , loved the 80's music through out the whole thing .
I can only imagine how much that shit must weigh!
American Nobody I’ve worked moving glass art for 20 years and I can tell you it’s very heavy, some pieces can be 500 pounds. Btw Martin is one of the Best Buy’s ever.
(Guys)
it is super heavy!
I wonder how much it cost
Art in such caliber must be worth something around tens or hundreds thousands dollars I think.
I'm trying to imagine the Artist view on this thing, how he sees it and how it was born in his mind, how he processed it during creation.
And summarise the basich costs.
Look at the quality of glass and silver, labor involved, how long it took to process the glass + tradeing margin + innovative factor + artistic value + price of the recipent + place it would be hanging.
It may be well made capital expenditure ;)
Omg all I can say is respect! I have just been blown away watching these artists at work. Just such an incredible labour of love. I salute you.
Сначала думала : ,,Мучались ,Мучались - и черт те что сделали! ,, А потом присмотрела б в конце ...дааааа! Красиво!
This is fascinating and beautiful thanks!!
You are welcome!
I bet it looks way different in oerson than with a camera lense and how it adjusts to the light
2 things i've always wanted to learn how to do. this (or another form, specifically glass blowing) and old school hammer and anvil blacksmithing.
Wow that was pretty cool. More of the end result would have made watching the entire thi ng significantly more satisfying to say the least.
Thank you for your feedback. What would you suggest?
Greg Owen I agree the end result was so little in comparison with the whole video length
@@GregOwen-gmanonfire I think even just a little bit of ending commentary would take the video from great to perfect. If you took a minute to stand with the result and explain certain choices, point out things that were challenging or unexpected, etc, it would be fascinating and definitely feel like a satisfying ending.
Either way, incredible work!
Really nice work 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I follow the process via instagram, i just get really in love with the work of all the people in every glasswork
Thanks very much for following along! I'm glad you are enjoying it. I will always be putting the complete videos here on TH-cam from now on.
I will NEVER tire of watching truly talented artists/craftsmen making something _incredibly_ complex and skilled, look effortless.
That was a joy to watch from start to finish! 👍
At first,to me it looked like the beginnings of a mermaid, But it’s so spectacular all that work in this beautiful creation 👏👏💯🥵👀 the massive hot temperatures!
I love it and I want to try this someday but I am only 12
Many glass studios will let you take classes at 12. You should try it out if you can.
epic gamer You are 12, you can do anything you want to! Just don't follow the idiots at school, and worry about you, and you can do whatever you want to do! What I would give to be 12 again, I definitely wouldn't do things the same, that's for sure!
Alexander the great started conquering the known world at 16/17. Age means nothing, theres no reason you can’t do anything you decide. Get to it
epic gamer that’s epic now let’s rise up gang weeders
Once you try Glass you’ll never want to quit. It is so wonderful and rewarding!!!
Amazing! What are the workers with the paddles doing?
They are shielding Martin from the radiant heat of the glass. It throws off a lot of temperature.
Ребяты, вы большие молодцы! Супер!!❤❤❤😊
How impressive the crystal images of two people suspended in the wonderful air.😮😮😮😮😮
I hear Tears for Fears.
That's a like.
Good stuff
Penis
And the Police. Must be an 80's station.
That is so cool
Ariel Asaro glad you like it!
Grizz C haha funny
Truly amazing!!!! Love hearing 38 Special playing in the background 🎸
Браво мастерам👏👏👏 Аплодирую стоя!
Great video, but please cut it out with the vertical video
selectkhan790,
the professor's 40+ thumbs up to your only 3, UNDENIABLY shows it's YOU who needs to SHUT UP
selectkhan790 there there cry baby, the only thing here that's old are idiots replies like yours to other people's legitimate complaints. Again, it's UNDENIABLY obvious that the professor's 40+ thumbs up to your only 3 shows it's YOU who needs to shut up
*Reads video title* ...
*Looks at thumbnail* ...
*Me* : Well...that there is a set of balls...
I have absolutely no idea but the teamwork and confidence is epic.
Beautifully done!!
I so wish there was a glass blowing place around where I live.
I dont understand anything thats going on in this video. Why are they rolling it in poprocks?
sterling archer i think they are coating it in colorful sand so when it melts in that weird oven it adds a layer since glass is made of sand (tbh i learned that from minecraft lmao) at least i learned something and maybe it ads color as it spreads hope im right
sterling archer If you don't understand anything in this video you have some serious life catching up to do. it's ovbious the blue glitter is a visual detail. At the end of the video you see the blue tint. Use your head once and a while and stop getting drip fed everything down to the last detail. What. Is it magic dust to make it float and morph? Fucking hell
TheFreshSpam its not glitter........ Lmfao glitter sparkles and the glass wasn't sparkly it was shiny cus of the light and also he/she meant it as a joke in sure and just cus he watches this video it doesnt mean he has to know everything that is going on so calm the fuck down and also its sand how do you think the glass statue grows? "Magic" as you said? Its colorful sand so when it melts it adds a layer to the statue and dont go around saying things like this when people are just curious my advice think before you say stupid shit
@@alexazeneth3308 I'm not calling him out on the pop rocks "joke". It's the fact he couldn't work out what blue dust did to clear glass when it's rolled over and mixed. Even at the begginging and end of the video you see the colour of the glass change. How blind can someone be?
@@themindset4164 Most if not all people do not need any prior knowledge of glass blowing to know when you mix two things together of different colours they change. Noone asks why water turns blue if you add blue dye to it. The same concept here. I think you need to stop defending idiots who roam the planet. They need a reality check on what they are asking. Instead of asking dumb questions watch the video. I learnt that way and many others did. It's the point of the VIDEO
I get the urge to want to grab that and squeeze I know it’s stupid but I still want to
Tpucky spicy honey
I love watching artists making glass
Studio glass masters continue to push their art. Bravo! All the steps are split second timing.
Is that how you make a polish aluminum foil ball
LMFAO BAHAHAHA! No Idiot. That's how you make glass sculptures. The silver was added to sparkle inside the glass. They said in the video that they added silver not aluminum! Pay attention much? Obviously not.
6:59 faithfully by Journey is playing in the background. Sorry I just really love that song.
Cockatiel Animations we played it just for you!
Now I see how they make dichroic glass. Beautiful...
Always amazed by the creative potential of humanity to create beautiful things..... with great love. They are just things. Why can’t humanity put just as much, if not more effort into creating a beautiful world for us all to live in?
Creation of this art piece was a statement to how well people can work together for a positive outcome. Would sure love to see it on a global scale and for the benefit of all creatures on Mother Earth.🌏😇🙏🏾🕊💜
WHY WOULD YOU FILM THIS VERTICALLY??? WHO HAS THEIR SCREENS VERTICAL WHILE WATCHING MOVIES/VIDEOS? CAPS LOCK RULES.
This video, and the others preceding it, are from my Instagram page @gmanonfire
Due to popularity of vertical video apps such as Instagram, Snapchat etc. although unusual vertical is getting acceptable now. TH-cam mobile has implemented a decent system for viewing them. You should try it out maybe.
MrManiacLIVE thanks
@Just Looking Vertical video still feels like trying to watch what is happening through a keyhole, or like a horse wearing blinders. I know the reasons it exists is because of mobile devices, but hell, if you plan on uploading to youtube it is still a lot of wasted space. th-cam.com/video/Bt9zSfinwFA/w-d-xo.html
Memo Can Instagram also allows horizontal video for people who have two working eyes.
Wish i could afford to tear and throw silver leaf on the ground
james friend it’s $16 for 25 sheets. I doubt you can’t afford to tear $1.56
Gold leaf is the worst when it flies away.
I lowkey thought it was tin foil at first
I like the coordination of the whole team working as one. I really like the encouraging boss! Every company should have a boss that. And finally good music playing to help you through the day.
All in all I'd say this is a pretty good place to work
😳 was not expecting the end result. Exquisite 🙌
i rate this work a 2..... OUT OF 2!!!!!
I rate your comment 5 out of 5!
Grow food and raise your children, all material objects are meaningless.
Haaa! Tell that to your brooding teenagers when they don't have a smartphone or gaming console like all the other kids in school!
@@Herbie11 touchè haha. Luckily I raised my first daughter before the phones were a big thing, that being said you’re correct- my 10 year old has all the technology and phone but Darn-it they still act like they like the garden to please dad I suppose. Hahahaha
Cheers
This was just amazing! I have no words...
That dude seems like the chillest teacher
OMG. A piece of ART. Love from Brazil. 😳😳😳😳🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏🧚🏽🧚🏽🌹🌹🔥🔥🔥🔥🥂🥂🥂🥰🥰🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Boy would I love to be there to see this. These fellows are masters, unreal.
Martin works regularly in the Seattle area, if you ever make it out this way.
Спасибо за искусство и труд!!!Потрясающе!!!
Beautiful piece,Great eye for detail, Stunning, Amazing Team work
Awesome . Love watching glass blown.
Beautiful work of Art!! A MASTERPIECE and that BEAUTIFUL HOME AT THE END, So Fitting !!! Wow 😳😳😉
These people so cool, they all wear sunglasses whilst working. I like it.
Trabajar el vidrio es algo serio . Y verles trabajar en equipo es fantástico ! El resultado al final siempre será fascinante 😉🍷
Clicked for the dubious thumbnail... stayed for the teamwork 👍
Loved the .38 Special in the background.
Wow! With all the hard work and your expertise I can't even imagine what the cost of this glass sculpture would be. Amazing talent and patience.
Какое четкое искусство и какая прекрасная командная работа.
Awsome fun watching y'all work!
You folks are AMAZING! I would LOVE to watch and help do something that great!
Wow the final piece is worth the whole video
What i wouldn't give to work in this hot shop. Amazing soft glass work. I love working with Boro. But soft glass is a dream.
WOW the result is just remarkable. The imagination of just making that is astonishing. I don't think you could have picked a better place to show case it. Amazing
