Joakim Ojanen, a multi-talented artist known for his surreal sculptures, paintings, and prints, has teamed up with Avante Art to launch three new limited-edition sculptures that explore themes related to love. The new collection, called 'Heartbreaker,' is set to drop on July 26.
The one-of-a-kind sculptures are made from hand blown glass and come in a blue, red, and violet hues. Each piece is meant to resemble a unique character, which is a staple for the artist. In addition, the sculptures feature brass feet, which function as their base and serve to round out their designs by adding metal into the fold.
According to Ojanen, the pieces intends to capture "two different feelings at once – the happy go lucky outside and the heart that is sad."
