London, October 2018
Commissioned by Gallery FUMI for presentation at PAD London (1 - 7 October 2018), “The Willow Light” by Lara Bohinc was originally inspired by her visit to a wonderfully overgrown ancient Japanese garden. The abundant wisteria and weeping willow trees seemed to keep hidden secrets beneath their dripping fronds and led Bohinc to adopt a more organic geometrical style to interpret their form with this lamp and its semi-obscured bulb arrangement. “Willow’s form is close to mother nature’s own geometry, adds Lara Bohinc, that always creates harmony from combinations of regularity and random asymmetry.”
