This vessel was inspired by Fakir Musafar, known as the "father of contemporary body modification". He believed in the meditative state achieved through human suspension, where the body is elevated by a series of hooks. Musafar called his practices "Modern Primitive," to reference non-tribal people who have primal urges to change the body. Here, the hand blown glass resembles skin that's simultaneously pierced and hooked with cast, patinated white brass and chains. It's reminiscent of a reliquary; a nod to ritual and how one can embody their truest selves through even the most extreme forms of adornment.
