Vari Series.
One year ago in the spirit of the Prima Materia collection, we designed an interactive light device made of bronze and walnut wood. The commercially acquired bronze cylinder became the visual and structural backbone of the ambient light lamp, which is turned on by manually, and gradually, sliding the wood element over the bronze cylinder.
The piece acts as a big switch that turns “on an off” the light in an analogical way, which creates a magical border, an homage to light generated with unexpected actions and materials.
This year, excited about the result, we had increase the family of pieces exploring different approaches following the same principle, generate physical actions that graduate and activate the light on or off. We had create three pieces, one that works with contact, other that works with balance and the third one that works with a relation of weight and position, each one with a unique technical approach that is completely related to the intention and expression of them.
