This was one of my two fav pieces ....

This was one called "belugas" ... looked like fun balloons to me ...

These truly blended into their surroundings ....

Gorgeous! You were so lucky to see this in person

This was only exhibit that was not glass but plastic, but you could go up and touch it .... it was actually two separate pieces made to look lie one depending on your perspective ....
