SHATTERED but not BROKEN
Roger Edwards
Artist Statement
Although the brain can be shattered by brain disease, it does not mean it is
broken entirely. This sculpture, made of safety glass and purposely shattered
throughout, serves as a metaphor for the human condition that is suffering
from some form of brain disease. If you look hard into its centre, you can see
the light that is trying to break through.
