DescriptionThis is a blown glass sculpture that looks like a red-flowering cactus. The body of the sculpture has an all-over geometric pattern in yellow, green, and red. The top of the scupture is covered with hundreds of green glass threads to look like cactus spines, and is surmounted by two large red flowery blooms of blown glass.
