it's a light

General information

AS AN ARTIST AND DESIGNER I AM ALWAYS FASCINATED BY OBJECTS AND I CANNOT RESIST IMAGINING THEIR REINVENTION.

I ACQUIRE ORDINARY MANUFACTURED OBJECTS AND TURN THEM INTO OBJECTS OF DESIRE AND POSSIBLY THE NEXT DESIGN CLASSICS; BUT THAT'S FOR THE CUSTOMER TO SAY.

I HAVE CHOSEN TO WORK WITH LIGHTING AS IT IS ONE OF MY PET OBSESSIONS (AS MY HOUSE AND MY PARTNER WILL TESTIFY).

I CONTINUALLY SEARCH FOR DIFFERENT COMPONENTS TO USE WHEN DESIGNING MY LIGHTS. SOMETIMES THESE ARE PURPOSE-MADE, SUCH AS THE SHADE CARRIERS (WHICH ALSO GO BY THE DELIGHTFUL NAME OF GIMBLES) WHICH I FOUND ON THE
LAMPS & LIGHTS WEBSITE (http://www.lampsandlights.co.uk) AND SOMETIMES THEY ARE ITEMS WHICH I ADAPT.

MY IDEAS ARE COMING FASTER THAN I CAN PRODUCE THE FINISHED PRODUCTS SO KEEP COMING BACK TO SEE WHAT'S NEW IN THE LIGHTING STRATOSPHERE.

I PRODUCE ALL THE LIGHTS YOU SEE HERE IN VERY SMALL NUMBERS. EACH ONE IS HANDMADE (NO MASS PRODUCTION HERE) SO YOU MAY HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL I HAVE MADE ANOTHER ONE, TWO, THREE OR FOUR.

THERE IS A BRAVE NEW WORLD OUT THERE FOR
REPURPOSED OBJECTS....
