"Radiant Child" Size: 2.16" Price: SOLD

Daisuke has been heavily influenced by pop art, and the art work of NYC pop artist Keith Haring has been one of the artists he most respected. This series of marbles pays tribute to the work and life of Keith Haring, featuring various iconic images that Keith was most famous for. Daisuke has striven to fuse contemporary art with the contemporary glass and marble movement, and as you'll see - he's done it with GREAT success!

In this marble, Daisuke used the disc flip tech to create Haring's MOST famous icon, the Radiant Child which is featured in many of Haring's works, and was the image Haring chose to represent his movement. This image has the added benefit of having 6 of Daisuke's own millie slices surrounding it!! This amazing marble is wonderfully crafted, fused together with Daisuke's other famous marble style, the opal suspended over a fumed implosion with a fumed swirl underneath. It's all tied together with his wonderful pinwheeling, giving us an incredible marble, one for the ages! This marble looks fantastic in different types of lighting which I tried to show in the one image. These marbles are yet another step in the evolution of high marble art, so fun to watch and be a part of!
