Illuminated Glass Skeleton

This phenomenal skeleton sculpture, "Embodiment" is created by sculptor Eric Franklin. The glass skeleton you can see down the page is completely hollow and filled up with ionized krypton, which causes it to glow just like a neon light. The item required more than 1, 000 hours of work during a two year period and also consists of 10 individual parts. Each and every part had to be sculpted separately by flameworking borosilicate glass before getting carefully put together into the whole skeleton you see below.
