Michael Anastassiades works through reduction. Each object he conceives arrives at its final form only after everything unnecessary has been removed, leaving a composition defined by proportion, material, and quiet tension. The Get Set Table Lamp is among his most considered gestures. A mouth-blown opaline glass sphere rests, seemingly in defiance of gravity, on a smooth bar of polished brass or nickel-plated brass. The milky orb diffuses light with an evenness that reads as warm and almost atmospheric, while its reflection in the metal below amplifies the sense that the sphere is suspended rather than placed.

His work occupies the space between sculpture and function, and is held in permanent collections at institutions including the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
