Recipe for Disaster-Glass Knife and Steel is a quirky and playful representation of the seedy side and the unglamorous role that glass plays in our every day. This work acknowledges the material of glass as not only a seductive medium for artistic use, but for its practical yet sometimes detrimental qualities.
