Two capsule-shaped sculptures in various colors and patterns of transparent and opaque, hand-blown glass, typically displayed on the floor as per their title, Pill Spill. Both capsules are differently colored and patterned on each half, divided by a visible seam much like an actual pill capsule: one half of the smaller pill is transparent turquoise, its other half vertically striped in yellow and orange; one half of the larger pill is an opaque pale blue/sea green, the tint of which darkens toward one end, its other half diagonally striped in black and white.
