On the surface of transparent glass,

Skin that looks as if it was sculpted in one go.

It expands again from there.
It's shaped like a pillar cut from a tree.

They are all heavier than they look.

When you line up three of them,
The difference in pitch directly translates into rhythm.

Even just one placed by the window.

Constfuck,
I went to the sculpture department of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts.

In 1963, he visited my studio.
I was invited by the manager of Lindshammar.
I entered the world of glass.

Carving the church altar cross,
Gifted to the Apollo 11 astronauts
I also create commemorative sculptures.

"A shape that looks like it was carved out in one swift motion with a knife."
He was a person who was described in that way.
