Ball

info

Ball is an imposing and inspiring rendition of a geometric ideal. Perfect in its simplicity, it is a virtual sphere of Swarovski crystals suspended on individual threads by a ring of LED lights in the top plate. The artist elaborates ‘The chandelier is a typology so loaded with history and decoration that I wanted to do the bare minimum. I had a vision of a meteorite flying through space, like a luminous object.’
