BLOOD, MONEY AND TEARS

"Blood, Money and Tears is a collaboration between Andy Diaz Hope and Laurel Roth. The artists chose several chandeliers which were then disassembled, chromed at a Harley shop and reassembled with certain key elements upside down to create a mirroring effect. Dripping with hundreds of syringes and garlanded with strings of multicolored pills and Swarovski crystal, the chandelier forms a mandala, becoming a vehicle for the viewer to meditate on their use of drugs and pharmaceuticals to modify behavior, emotion and perception."
