Reframed: Lamp
This lamp explores the dynamic relationship between functional design and art display. The piece is designed to shift focus depending on its state. When the lamp is off, the artwork takes center stage, its presence enhanced by the surrounding steel and oak structure. When illuminated, the lamp itself becomes the focal point, subtly guiding attention to the artwork it supports.
The lamp's body is a careful combination of steel and oak, balancing industrial strength with natural warmth. The artwork, a canvas piece dyed with copper oxide, interacts with the light, creating an evolving visual dialogue between material, illumination, and the subtle interplay of form and function.
