Lights and shadows

Ornamental lampshade – at first sight – how many animals do you see?

Today’s project is a wired lamp – although I only wired the lampshade – the lamp itself was done by a professional electrician…. safety first! 😊

This is an ornamental lampshade – at first sight!

As you probably noticed already, I really like animals – so this animal lover’s lampshade is an ornamental interpretation of dogs 🐶, cats 🐱, a mouse 🐭, a bone 🦴and hearts ❤️. Do you find them all?

It’s only bent wire, prepared to fit over a porcelain lamp, no screws, no welding, involved.

Have a shiny week everybody!

Decorative lampshade out of wire

A wire sculpture made its way into a decorative, yet functional lampshade. Playing around with a 3-dimensional wire structure, its shapes and shadows, adding on some garlands of recycled fabric and a few colourful African glass beads, I ended up with an original lamp. The interaction of light and shadow is an important effect that’s fun to experiment with.

If you are interested in the project, or if would like to have one commissioned – get in touch with me!

Drawing with wire….

These days, I got back to metal works, as it is necessary for a jewellry designer every now and then. I tried to use wire in order to draw and sculpt. Not only wire draw lines, their shadows do as well. Got to explore more of this! #drawing #wire #clown #sculpture #shadows #mixedmedia
