This lamp is built from clay, firing it just once to reduce energy consumption. Vibrant yarn created from textile mill waste to crochet its cover. Inline dimmer switch. Soft matte bulb included. All UL parts.
Artist Bio:
My work is driven by materials and form. I have a profound affinity for two materials in particular - robust sculpture clay and a stretchy yarn crafted from upcycled textile remnants. My clay pieces are made through a process called handbuilding. I roll coils of clay and wrap and smooth them into shapes. Coilbuilding with this gritty sculpture clay is a bit like building sand castles. I find it very therapeutic. Vibrant satin and matte finishes complete my pieces. Working with sustainable yarn allows me to relax into the rhythm of the single crochet stitch. This eco-friendly yarn, repurposed from jersey fabric leftover by the fashion industry, not only reduces waste, but is a dream to knit with. Many of my pieces are small tables and lamps. They are a way to bring functional art into your home. I like to keep my hands busy each day, building shapes just to see where they go. The result of this work is often a small sculpture or wall hanging.
