Slonem is best known for his “maximalist” paintings of wildlife exotica most famously birds, rabbits, and butterflies. Drawing inspiration from the spiritual and natural worlds, he repeats these motifs on an epic scale in an act of visual and artistic mantra.

“My established lexicon of forms have taken on new life in blown glass...all in a visual culmination that is thrilling to me artistically” - Hunt Slonem
Slonem’s unique glass sculptures are a sublime visual manifestation of the artist’s sense of play Working with his team of artisan glassblowers to form molten glass into his own glass menagerie, Slonem’s established practice and mantra of repetition of form continues a new. Each handblown glass sculpture is both completely unique and yet references and riffs off a visual lexicon 50 years in the making.

An intentional evolution of the artist’s bunny walls, blown glass Salon Busts are a playful iteration of the original.
As with many of Slonem’s other series, there is a meditative yet unconstrained repetition of form At once both rhythmic and slightly, yet intentionally, out of cadence with the world of the expected, this series is a continuation of the artist’s desire to recontextualize ephemera previously attributed to formal salons of bygone eras.

The artist’s desire to illuminate his work was the impetus for the glowbox series Inspired by the luminescence and light quality of blown glass, each acrylic painting is internally lit.

BUNNIES
With the acknowledgement that his iconic bunny forms are larger than life, Slonem’s new neon light sculptures are intended as a playful reinterpretation of his beloved rabbits Each unique work is comprised of a custom painted aluminum cabinet and delicate Italian neon tubing. For dramatic effect, hidden halo lighting creates an ethereal glow

PAINTINGS
Slonem’s new dichroic painting series emerged, quite literally, through the looking glass. The lush, dimensional line work of Slonem’s oil paintings led him to explore the layered complexity of dichroic glass. Originally created by NASA as a coating for space-bound scientific instruments, the luminescent dichroic coating serves as an undulating canvas for the artist to carve his form into. Presented in a custom-made ocular glass frame design sourced from the 18th century.

A timeless silhouette revisited. Intentionally bright in color, these large-scale powder-coated works are the next iteration of twodimensional forms made manifest in sculpture. With the same quick and loose gesture as the artist’s hand, the curves and soft angles of the exterior and interior lines of the work are Slonem’s intentional reference of his established painted form
