Hot Air Balloon.
Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Everyone has skeletons. What a unifying concept! We have an oddly distant relationship with our own insides. I enjoy carving out the anatomy of the glass pieces I work on, and bring those details to the surface.
This piece was made in collaboration with Chadd Lacy. The balloon is carved with a female skull on one side, and a male skull on the opposite side.
