Mitosis
The title of this work is Mitosis, which means “cell division.” Instead of blowing a heated glass or bonding a thin sheet of glass, the artist makes a work by cutting, recombining, and trimming large chunks of glass, similar to the process in which a cell is repeatedly divided and finally becomes a creature. After getting married and having a baby, he wanted to better understand cell division, the beginning of life. Thus, he looked for related documentaries and books, which inspired him to create this work.
