At first glance, the Glass Rider looks realistic enough to pass for a living and breathing biker. Yet this is actually a stunning sculpture made out of broken drinking glasses and liquor bottles.
Created by Studio Re-Creation, the Glass Rider "symbolizes the fragility of the current speed of life and its consumption's," states the company. I just wish there were more of these intriguing images to look through.
