WORKERS LAMP
CHART Art Fair, 30 August - 1 September 2019
Workers Lamp Lightning objects, in solid, hot sculptured glass with inspiration from the old lace workers lamp. In early 1900 the lace workers used glass globes, filled with water to amplify the poor daylight. In this age of electric light and such light sources as quartz halogen, we tend to forget that it is an invention of comparatively modern times. Today we take good working light sources for granted but our historical forbearers of lace-making had no such luxury. What will happen with light resources in the future?
Material: Hot sculptural glass, LED light and PLA.
