Title: "Possible Hack" Glass, Wood, Acrylic, LED and persistence.
Artistic Concept: Taking Erik's grandfather's axe blade and casting a series in glass was a real honor. This is the blade that Erik learned how to chop wood with as a child. Many years later, he finds himself deeply talented and immersed with both his own art and the success of him and his wife's gallery, Hall-Spassov. Here lies the heart of the installation. Enduring and persisting through hardships and victories ignites the artist to continue on, despite the odds. As an artist, I am truly inspired by this narrative.
