Swamp Flowers

The Venusian Swamp Flora are one of a series of works that explore Ehlenberger’s Venusian world of fantasy flora and fauna. Notable about these sculptures are the detailed, subtly colored single-end neon tubes seen emerging from the hand-blown glass vessels.The neon tubes are mounted with a wireless connection and are easily removed for shipping. As illustrated in the photographs above, the Swamp Flowers can be displayed on a variety of bases, singularly or in multiples.

Ehlenberger’s modular “component” system allows for interchange of the neon tube and base so that the photos here offer but one approach to the sculpture, with many other options available.

Interchangeable Components

The Venusian Botanica Series incorporate an easily interchangeable component-based system in which the individual glass and neon elements can be mounted on a variety of different bases.
