Biological Stained Glass invites us to look closely—through glass, through memory, and through the living structures that connect us to other species and cultures. In this series, Gene A. Felice II explores new, ecologically conscious methods of working with stained glass, reimagining a traditionally toxic artform through processes of “making-with” both material and memory. By replacing lead with laser-cut wood framing, paired with digitally designed and hand-polished glass structures, Felice creates hybrid works that merge digital fabrication with tactile craft. In 200x Magnification, microscopic starch granules become sites of translation: laser-engraved and inlaid with silver pigment, their botanical structures shimmer on the glass surface, evoking both cellular intimacy and the plant’s own variegated sheen. https://coactionlab.org/biological-stained-glass/
