SUNSET DRIVE Sunset Drive debut at Design Miami, 2021. It is a colorful experiment into light and reflectivity. “Thinking about a drive during sunset, amazed by the vivid colors and cloud formations, when cars pass by and you see moments of the bright headlights of cars passing by, I wanted to create a collection of pendant lights that are meant to be experienced from different angles and distances.” Made of sunset-hued mirrored glass cylinders and Meerschaum, a solid clay mineral found mainly in Eskisehir, in central Turkey, Sunset Drive is a collection of pendants, featuring a medley of shapes, forms, textures and colors. From afar, the whole piece seems solid, but upon closer examination the intricate hand carved floral and graphic patterns become visible with the glowing light shining through. Turkish craftsman carved the Meerschaum with intricate patterns and perforations to diffuse the light. The sandblasted glass globes emit a soft romantic light, giving an impression of the haze before nightfall. Meerschaum Collections represented by Wexler Gallery Please inquire here.
