Lamp shows off wood work

Love Lamp by Klara Sumova embodies a process  of evolution, detailing the story from a raw material into a mechanically cultivated one. The central idea is to introduce the material—wood—in its different stages of work progress, from the undressed piece into its manufactured parts. The Lamp begins with an untouched base, which is lathed into a baroque curve from which the machine cut stock extends, then concludes in a simple light fixture. The concept continues with the addition of the paper lampshade, with a subtle wood grain texture hinting to the authentic wood from which it came. The work process of the lamp ultimately returns both metaphorically and physically back to its beginning.

The shape of the lamp is designed with traditional proportions in mind, and invites the viewer to perhaps reflect upon the traditions behind this typical and well-established form.

It is produced in three types, proportionally differing between them, and fashioned in Pine, Ash or Larch wood.
