This glass composition was inspired by Modigliani and his portraits of women with long noses. The design was originally part of a mirror created by Isabelle Adragna, and as a nod to this work, the fragments of opaque black glass symbolise the lead she uses in her stained glass. The stained-glass technique requires a lot of offcuts, which generally cannot be reused. This work was therefore designed and created from scraps of glass, which were then broken with a hammer. The glass dust produced by the shattering was glued to a canvas frame, just like a mosaic.
