It has been more than 30 years since Yuan-jung Hsu left the export business for a career in glass art. Based in Hsinchu, Hsu uses a "glass weaving" technique that achieves the look of dancing flames in glass. Hsu never sketches his works, but rather weaves each piece out of glass in heat of up to 1300 Celsius degree. Hsu really loves glass and can always be found at any glass art festival. In 2008, his work, "Glass Bicycle : Carefree Along 17 Kilometers of Coastline," whose creation came out during a push for "green" forms of transportation, was chosen was one of the "Ten Best Gifts in Hsinchu City."
