A piece based on the vernacular of a venetian lantern – glass is blown in a metal structure to protect the light. In this case, the metal structure is made of wire familiar with the (embarassing) actuality of Europe's migrant situation. The shape of the lantern itself is based on the profile lines of the bourgeois chandelier. The glass blown inside is 'hurt' by metal points, but also protected by them.
