I love interesting light fixtures. I am fascinated with them. Light is so important, both literally and metaphorically. I think that my interest in light began when studying the importance of light and illumination in painting. For example, North Renaissance painting uses light as a symbolic reminder that wherever there is light (streaming through a window of a church, over a figure etc) their is a presence of god. God = light. Although I find this symbolism quite lovely, I must say that does not correspond with my interest in light fixtures. But the principle of light giving life, meaning, comfort or something bigger and brighter (pun intended) is something that I find very interesting and important. Light effects everything for happiness to what lives and dies.
How that light is translated in an artificial way into an interior space by an artist or a designer for inner illumination is why I am always drawn to light fixtures. Here are a couple that I was recently drawn to!
Bathroom rope light. So artistically designed! I love it!
This is made of pipes and Swarovski crystal! I love the mix of industrial parts with chic sparkle! beautiful
