Lamps
By coincidence, I added a new and exciting dimension to my artistic work a couple of years ago: designing and shaping lamps
|
I am a painter, and my painting keeps me busy alright, but…
Coincidentally, I acquired a little lathe. By playing with it, I developed a taste for working with metal and then bought a metal cutter. My initial idea was to make metal sculptures, but making a lamp to illuminate the cutter became the beginning of my obsession with lamp design.
One idea followed the other, and today I have approximately 25 prototypes of table and standing lamps, theoretically ready for production.
As a painter, I only work in daylight, but in the evening, artificial light allows you to turn, file, saw, cut, grind, and polish.
The overall philosophy behind the expression of my lamps is of course shape and material composition. But I also pay great attention to the components necessary for the lamps to work, i.e. screws, switches, wires, cords, jointings etc.
