I thought I should share this with the readers of this blog. Check out the original post to find out the whole story at statesman.com. He’ll use empty beer bottles that people leave for him and cut them into small pieces to create his beautiful works of art. He also used tiles and stone, and some glass that he purchases from Italy. It’s very inspiring work.
