description About

The challenge of creating sculpture that is dazzling yet approachable provided Dale Chihuly with an opportunity of a lifetime. Enter the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island and marvel at the four Chihuly sculptures that grace this setting. The Crystal Gate is a glittering tower of over 2000 hand-blown glass crystals soaring more than 20 feet in the air. On one side is the Temple of the Sun; on the other, the Temple of the Moon. The sun radiates yellow, orange, and red elements from the fiery globe. Equally compelling, the Temple of the moon is cool and calm in cobalt blue and opalescent white. Above, in shades of gold, silver, and amethyst, is the Atlantis Chandelier, a wild array of glass suggesting jellyfish, anemones, tentacles of squid, and seaweed. Watch the Chihuly team of artists, artisans, glassblowers, and installers work from prototypes of the sculptures to create these exquisite works of art.
