Product Spotlight: Sean Hennessey’s Concrete and Glass

When the future humans unearth the lost city of Insert Popular American City Here in 2600, the remains might look like Sean Hennessey’s creations. They will wonder what giant monster or weather event could have fused all this concrete and glass together. Small items like light bulbs and plugs will stick out like fossils.

Of his new pieces, Sean says:

After toiling for months and months in my laboratory, I have devised an unusual new series of works! By discovering and deciphering the ancient techniques of formulating a permanent bond between concrete and window glass, I have taken my sculptures to an exciting and mysterious new level.

In this image, you see actual aged concrete on a glass sculpture. This furthers the interpretation of my sculpture in an archaeological sense of relics and specimens, as if crucial messages from our time have been dug up in the distant future.

Sean’s work is very unique to Crafty Bastards, so be sure to check it out at Booth #36.
