| Spoonlamps© is a series that I began in
1999 with a small spiral of plastic utensils that has grown into
various forms of functional art and sculpture over the years.
The inspiration for the form comes from the geometry found in
nature. The series evokes the themes of recycling
and transcendence. It is my intent to begin with common,
even disposable objects and transform them into functional and beautiful works of art.
The quality of light and shadow is considered carefully in each
piece and new discoveries are carried into subsequent pieces. The series began with the use of plastic spoons and
has evolved into
similar forms created in metal. The lightweight
translucence of plastic and the heavy reflective quality of
metal create different challenges and opportunities for design
both medium.
