'Inside Out' is part of a larger show entitled GLASSTRESS, happening in conjunction with the Venice Biennale celebrations. Williams describes the project in part as a meditation on aspiration and society. Commissioning expert glass blowers from Murano, he sought to visualize the insides of an angel. 'Inside Out' is located at Murano's Berengo Centre for Contemporary Art and Glass, according to the [Billionaire Boys Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limitededition-astronaut-sculpture) blog. The two handmade [glass sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/serpentine-bell) included in the exhibit are 18 inches high and 6 feet tall; Murano's Berengo Studio made both pieces.
