One of the first neon experiments; this piece suggests danger and impossibility as the neon disappearing in to liquid, creating an unnatural but compelling tension.
The piece forms part of the neon series where a scientific investigation of the limits of argon and neon are combined with the skills of an expert glassblower, to create works made from scientific glassware that challenge our preconceptions of what the gases are capable of.
