This lamp began as a study in absence. I carved away at the form, letting light pass through where clay used to be. What’s left is a kind of scaffolding—open, irregular, and porous—like something grown rather than built.
I wanted it to feel alive. Like something that breathes with the room. The bulb glows through the gaps, casting shadows that shift with each angle. It’s both container and frame, holding light while letting it spill freely.
There’s something comforting to me in the way this piece holds space. It’s not trying to be perfect. It just allows light to exist inside it, shaping the room in quiet, flickering gestures. It reminds me that structure doesn’t have to mean control. That openness can feel just as secure.
When I make work like this, I’m trying to give form to a feeling—that home doesn’t have to be solid to be real. Sometimes it’s made of what stays, and sometimes of what’s been carved away.
