MORPH CHANDELIER | Alicja Wasielewska
Wasielewska on her project:
Morph`s funcion is to create specyfic and unique atmosphere of intiminity. As a tool of visualisation generate emotion and stimulate imagination. My work concerns the transformation from the natural form to inspirational structures which, from a mathematical perspective, retain the essence of the original, but are represented in terms of the 3 dimensional crochet pattern used as the main structure for the chandelier. The chandelier demonstrates the inspirational transformational elements, and reinterprets the traditional method of making chandeliers in an unconventional and unusual way. The innovation of using the traditional element of crochet in the design is combined with the use of the new fibre optic technology to form structure and provide the light source.
Up to this point I have been posting work that I have done in my Media and communications class. Moving forward, I will be focusing on my thesis. I will continue exploring Deconstructive Destruction through ways of surrealism, testing different experiments in design and researching various designers, artists and buildings.
