At 21 cm high, M217 is a small-scale work from Dylan Martinez's water bag series. The reduced scale brings the viewer close, and at that distance the deception becomes more precise: the slight sag of the bag at its base, the waterline, the cluster of bubbles caught below the surface. All of it is glass, sculpted hot and then annealed. Martinez describes his practice as an exploration of the tension between reality and illusion, using glass, a material both solid and delicate, to imitate fleeting objects and to leave open the question of what is real.
