Minimalist Evil Eyes


This piece is inspired by Turkish Evil Eyes (called Nazars); the traditional ones are made of colored blue, black, and white glass and have an eye-like, eggs-over-easyish, blobby form.

​These here have morphed into vaguely Daniel Buren-like markers...just a couple of friendly Evil Eyes hanging out in the tire sculpture, enjoying the beach.
