About this artwork

“FLUX -chandelier”

The center of the chandelier is an intersection made of chaos: Steel tubes organically flow under and over each other, trying to find a way out. The tubes continue to flow, and meander into 6 straight geometric arms. The arms hold 6 light bulbs.

FLUX rare beauty in common objects

Numerous experiments with materials and shapes resulted in a new production method: “Flux”
Flexible steel tubes are shaped by hand and become strong… and rigid after curing.

Each item is handcrafted, partly shaped without the use of any molds or machinery.
“Human manual 3D printing”
Making each object a unique piece.

The shape is created free-formed by hand and bound by the flexible characteristics and radius of the material.
The “Flux”-series consists of organic, dynamic and kinetic objects that are inspired by nature.
The way that plants, trees, organisms and rivers meander, multiply, grow and flow.
Seemingly random and chaotic, but following destinate paths.
