Dia de los Muertos

  « Hippos Gallery

(Glass Sculpture Bubblers)

Dia de los Muertos I was in Mexico for the day of the dead in 2001 and saw some really cool altars and art.
It is a celebration with emphasis on celebrating and honoring the lives of the deceased, and celebrating the continuation of life; the belief is not that death is the end, but rather the beginning of a new stage in life. On the altar you place the persons favorite foods, drinks and other vices for them to enjoy.

This piece is a collaboration by myself and Bryan aka Surf Rat. I also got my friend Bonnie to draw the skulls and flowers.

Thanks to Kris Gardener for the photos.

Hello my name is Jesse and I work in Vancouver B.C., Canada.

I got excited about glass on my many trips the the states for music and travel. In late 96 I convinced my friend Dave to come up and teach me some basics. From there I started my long road to being the lampworker I am today.
