![Dress Impression with Drapery by Karen LaMonte [Martin Polak]](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FqHK1r1noFQ/RkLUdde_zKI/AAAAAAAAAAU/RAku_VUgjN0/s400/lamonte-dress-impression-with-drapery.jpg)
Check out this podcast with an interview with Karen LaMonte talking about her artwork. Her exhibition "Absense Adorned" at the Museum of Glass in Tacoma was spectacular. Karen's life sized cast glass dresses sculptures are both monumental and intimate, treading delicate lines between interior and exterior, presence and absence, naked and clothed, confident and vulnerable. Photographs do not do justice to Karen's work (no matter how expertly photographed), so do try to see her work in person to get the full effect.
The podcast was produced by the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Washington where Karen's cast glass sculptures were exhibited. ( http://www.museumofglass.org/exhibitions/absence-adorned/ ). Karen LaMonte's website can be found at www.karenlamonte.com
