Used Ones?

I'm thinking of adding a new label to our blog, of "things I will never sit under":




This series of chandelier sculptures drips with sparkling hypodermic needles and garlands of swarovski crystal, and colorful gelatin capsules. Viewed from beneath they create colorful mandalas on which to meditate on ones relationship to pharmaceuticals. The beauty of the object from a distance and the repulsion of the individual elements upon closer inspection create the tension of our cultures schizophrenic relationship to drugs.


Yeah uh, okay. Also, our not so schizophrenic relationship to sharp pointy things hanging over our heads.
