The Forced series is a metaphor for the forces that people are constantly subjected to. Social, psychological, cultural, and physical forces that, over time, distort our spirit and our body.
Everyone reacts differently to such forces: however, everyone, is influenced by them.
These works react in the same way. The pressure of the metal to which the glass is subjected is similar for each piece: but the thickness, density and shape of the vase lead each time to a different result in terms of volume and, consequently, aesthetics.
