Tomaselli encases layered collage elements within transparent resin panels, creating luminous depth and dimensionality that closely mirrors Yellin's technique of embedding intricate imagery inside glass and epoxy forms. Both artists exploit translucency to build visually complex, jewel-like surfaces with strong chromatic intensity.

McElheny works with glass as a primary sculptural medium to explore layered transparency and conceptual depth, producing works where light interacts with form to generate luminous, multidimensional visual experiences much like Yellin's UV ink and glass constructions. His practice similarly merges conceptual rigor with the physical and optical properties of glass.

Friedman creates highly intricate conceptual sculptures using unconventional mixed media, building up complex imagery through meticulous layering processes that parallel Yellin's encased collage aesthetic. Both artists share a commitment to transforming ordinary or unexpected materials into richly detailed three-dimensional objects with strong conceptual underpinnings.
