Light’s mass

About Project

After crafting the idea, i choose the way how to transform it in to an object.
I simply took the stones as a foundation.
I randomly choose a beautiful leftover stone, treated from a local craftsman.
The structure is from coper because is not hermetic to environment, is interactive with its conditions.
The form is like an old scales, so on one side is a bronxe stone and on the other is the light disc. Vizually they are different materials (stainless steel, coper, bronx) but they stay good together. The production process has happened in collaboration with metal local craftsman.The product is designed to be easily put together by anybody. It has no welding points so its easily dismountable. This item took very long time to project but a short time to build. For this im thankfull to the local craftsmans who help me a lot with their experience in this field.

  • What is light's mass?
    In my thoughts lies the question on solving the inner and outer conflicts finding an equilibrium of inner, which it takes care of the outer. The personal that takes care of the public.
    Light that counterweights the struggles of life.
    The Self confronting itself.
