Upward Rain Glass Blowing Murano Kuwait Shrine in in a shrine lined with lanterns in Kuwait City

Upward Rain Glass Blowing Murano Kuwait Shrine

by Hope Morton

Silver streaks of rain ascend rapidly through the twilight air, defying gravity in crisp, vertical lines that cut across a dark, overcast sky. Inside a shrine lined with glowing lanterns in Kuwait City, a Venetian glass-blower shapes molten orange glass on a rod. The string lights cast a warm, rhythmic glow against the cold, wet atmosphere, illuminating the worker's focused posture. Winter chill seems to hang in the air, visible as a slight haze around the rising water droplets. The glass glows intensely, against the cool silver of the inverted rain. At the edge of the frame, a droplet hangs suspended mid-ascent, reflecting the orange fire of the furnace in perfect, tiny detail.
