hummingbird window. A starthroat hummingbird searches
for nectar in a cluster of mirabilis flowers in this fancy window,
that contains sections of translucent blue glass and fancy beveled
glass, connected by metal joints in a geometric pattern, with
a chain meant to hang the piece in a window. "Over the years
Ayotte has successfully explored many different encasement formats,
producing most notably bowls, cylinders, cubes and some rare
and magnificent windows, but he always seems to return to the
traditional paperweight dome."—Songs Without Words:
