The Room in my Head

This is a glass statue of a head with a cigarette dangling in his mouth contemplating the emptiness of his existence, as symbolised by the empty space in the top left side of his brain. The statue is composed of fused layers of blue, yellow, green, and red glass and the cigarette has been added in transparent glass using moulding and sculpting techniques. A combination of fuse, blow and cold work has been applied.
