Black Hole (2018)
Materials & Techniques: MDF, Glass, Chrome, Automotive Paint.
I am fascinated by the universe, especially its vastness and mystery! The idea for the Black Hole lamp was inspired after reading about an event horizon, which is theorized to surround a black hole and be the point from which no matter or light can escape the black hole’s gravitational pull.
The lamp features a black glass center surrounded by a high gloss automotive finish. A rotary switch in the center of the black glass operates dimmable LED lighting strips that shine in a ring on both the face and the backside of the lamp. The LED light makes an excellent night light. The bulb is switched at the socket.
I created 4 Black Hole lamps in 2018; a pair in blue-green and a pair in red.
The Black Hole lamp represents the finest craftsmanship, heirloom quality, and forward thinking design of custom lamps made in Oklahoma City.
Dimensions: 18” wide, 8” deep, x 32” tall (Measurements with pictured shade)
