Although we are culturally committed to reason and analytics today, we still need our fear of monsters to encompass “the other”, the unknown, and to be alert to unprocessed ideas and situations. dimensional mosaic: lava, cinders, slate, slag, glass tesserae framed: each panel is 32.5”H x 38.5”W x 7” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/3e46962f-7edd-4246-a4ad-29d93157b3f1/Molnar_Spirit.png South Light Studio - Holy Spirit In this glass mosaic the dynamic image of the dove invites a more active participation with the spirit. Generated lines in the blue field present the winds of Pentecost. In addition to the reflected light on the wings, both opaque and translucent tesserae are used to articulate the flames. stained glass tesserae on board : framed: 22”H x 19.5”W https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/02962946-921d-49bf-9acd-5a5c90de6b54/Molnar_New-Moon.png South Light Studio - New Moon This panel utilizes the subtle quality of nocturnal light. The glow of moonlight on the leaves is enhanced by the slightly different densities and tones in the glass. Historic Kokomo glass formulas from previous centuries pays homage to the long tradition of image making in this medium. stained glass: framed: 43.5”H x 33.75”W https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/20c84b01-ee73-4b30-9630-6bbe94716670/Molnar_I-Am-the-Vine.png South Light Studio - I Am the Vine This small mini mosaic is intended as a contemplative image (Visio Divina). A descending visual form represents “I Am the Vine; You Are the Branches”. The theme is reiterated in the background with secondary visual information of star crosses that interrupt the blue field. stained-glass tesserae mosaic : framed 13.5” x 10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/456ee9fe-1186-4b10-9aba-a732502f8385/Molnar_Dragon-Scale-Series.png South Light Studio - Dragon Scales Series: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, & Cosmos In these panels, elements are repeated, not mechanically but with variation. An apparently simple grid pattern becomes dynamic instead of static. It is subtle and complex. stained glass: framed: Earth, 54”H x 24”W; Water, 52”H x 22.5”W; Fire, 54”H x 24”W; Air, 52”H x 22.5”W; Cosmos, 53”H x 23.5”W https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/8dcdb583-2f6e-41c1-b2b3-90a000f8c5ae/Molnar_Mauve-Rose.png South Light Studio - Mauve Rose An elegant presentation of the iconic rose.

The implied movement is integral to the concept of this work. Fused glass created subtle tones and slumping facilitated adherence to the sculpted substrate. The andamento technique was used to show visual flow and direction. dimensional glass mosiac with copper wire : 40”H (with posts and 17” high without posts) x 38”W x 18”D https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/58141e95-c987-497f-928b-223ac1548d2e/Molnar_Cloud-of-Cloudless-Sulfur-Butterflies.png South Light Studio - A Cloud of Cloudless Sulfur Butterflies The Cloudless Sulfur Butterfly is the inspiration for this small panel - Cloud of Cloudless Sulfur Butterflies. Voyagers have recorded seeing clouds of bright yellow butterflies over the ocean, presumably during their seasonal migrations. fused and leaded stained glass: framed: 16.75”H x 16.75”W https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/cad493ed-6910-425a-8ae0-2dbbb24c0d77/Molnar_Grape-Vine.png South Light Studio - Grape Vine The impression of depth is accomplished with light tones and less dense glass choices for the highlighted leaves. Sculpting of the grape cluster includes some fused highlights and dark tones for the shadows. The vine indicates dabbled light by utilizing color transitions in the sheet of stained-glass. fused and stained-glass: framed: 25.5”H x 19.5”H https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/b3378e0f-4f7f-4d35-b48d-9080e33c9fb7/Molnar_Funky-Fleur.png South Light Studio - Funky Fleur What began as a napkin sketch developed into a stained-glass panel honoring the culture of New Orleans. The traditional fleur-de-lis caught in a whirlwind of chaotic movement. The glass choices remind the viewer of both dark skies and, the hint of Mardi Gras colors (purple for justice, green for faith, gold for power). Tying it all together is a red ribbon in a field of swirling blue. While various cultures assign different meanings to colors, here the artist chooses the juxtapositions to visualize the energy of a city and its peoples. stained glass: unframed: 12.5”H x 22.5”W https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/70418b73-eaf8-4d39-810b-406ca9e20b6c/Molnar_Magic-Square.png South Light Studio - Magic Square Any color in any row, column, or diagonal will add up to a whole circle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c705dbd482e9dff5952da6/6ba40d77-ab66-41cf-a5f2-5c00c5a9b064/Molnar_Wanderer.png South Light Studio - Wanderer This mosaic image of a swimming sea turtle is rendered with various light situations. Abrasion etching of selected glass accomplishes a matte finish for a sense of depth. Both opaque and translucent tesserae control and direct the light in the foreground. Movement is accomplished using andamento, the direction and flow of the tesserae, as well as the color and tone to create form. The view is an underwater encounter.
