Symbolic Fish Bowls

Roger Arquer's Hand Blown Glass Art Explores Human Qualities

Industrial designer Roger Arquer explores different and unique designs of hand blown glass art. His symbolic fish bowls let us imagine what the fish would want if it were human.

His designs are fun and playful but they are also thought-provoking. Would the fish prefer some screening for privacy? Would it appreciate having a neighbor? Or even have a romantic relationship as depicted by the floating candlelight design?

Of all the symbolic fish bowls, the one that probably resonates strongest is the Do Not Piss Me Off design which features a plug and chain.
