Hamad Butt

 "I want to speak of fear. I want to exploit the word apprehensions for its associations with arresting, grasping, understanding and fearing"

I can't remember where I came across Hamad Butt - I want to say Insta, but I have a vague idea someone sent me a link. I really like his work - I love the mixture of science and art, and I love the way he plays with emotions, in a way that I like to - beauty, intrigue, but also apprehension, perhaps even fear. Assuming the vessels really are filled with Chlorine (and I feel sure they are), the risk is quite real.

The glass was apparently blown by technicians from Imperial College. I remember when I first joined Imperial, to study Chemistry, in the late 90s, someone mentioned that the glass technicians had collaborated with an artist. They were rightly proud. The timing fits. Funny how things come in circles.
