ARC20:Rotonda lamp - ADRIAN CRUZ ELEMENTS
Drawn to the translucency and the 3D illusion that light creates through the resin, I use a sophisticated technique to sculpt crystal resin, mixing colors inspired by my Mexican culture with materials like onyx and marble. The Rotonda lamp is inspired by the Renaissance floor plans of the villas and the colorful Mexican architecture, the light bulb is erected by two plates in crystal resin, displaying a weightless balancing act. The sphere is the fundamental piece of the collection. This unique light bulb is fully made in crystal resin with a concavity that captures movement and lightness in the material. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, shaped by a mould, cast and excavated again making sculpture from resin.
