“Glass is the lie that reveals the truth.”
Dylan Martinez creates hyperreal glass sculptures that blur the boundary between the seen and the believed. Whether mimicking water-filled plastic bags or evoking digital ghosts in solid form, his work challenges our perception of material, memory, and reality. What looks disposable becomes precious. What seems fluid is rigid. Through illusion, Martinez invites the viewer into a deeper awareness of how—and why—we see.
