Niall Shukla, a remarkably skilled and self-taught artist, creates stunningly intricate portraits on laminated glass by meticulously cracking it with controlled hammer strikes.
His technique demands immense patience and precision, as each strike must be carefully calculated in both pressure and placement; a single misstep can shatter the glass beyond repair, forcing him to begin anew.

@catlynne333 ❤️ I don't think I've ever seen any art created this way before it really caught my attention. ❤️
@thewebrecluse yes amazing
Although his background lies in writing and film directing, Shukla began creating physical art as a personal escape, and one day, on a whim, he posted one of his cracked glass pieces on social media—an act that unexpectedly garnered over 4 million views within days.
