Crystal Glass smash is meant to explore the idea of value. Present in the video are crystal glasses. The actor strikes a knife against the glasses to hear their pitch. When they are deemed unfit or invaluable, they are destroyed. This is the nature of our society. We throw things out that, to one person, may have great value, while to another person, it does not meet their ideas and expectations of quality

Snowballs' explores the idea of a clear glass door serving as an emotional divide. The actor gathers snowballs and then sites his target, a person on the other side of the glass. This clear glass serves as a membrane protecting the person inside. They cannot be harmed by the snowballs, or the aggression of the person throwing the snowballs.
