Next lamp: Dummy Hand Lamp

Brought home from the street.

By Keren Gerlitz

Brought home from the street.

Every object has its own potential. If I listen carefully, they tell me what they want to become. Sometimes, if they are indecisive, I put them in my storage to let them percolate until it becomes clear.

Disassemble!!! Cleaning, thinking and bonding. Idea found!

One of the things I enjoy most in my work is the fact that each object is unique, which makes me invent and seek new technical solutions in the building process.

Metal time! Modelling. Come take a ride with me.

The practical bits

Availability

This one has found its home. Bring an object of your own and I can make one like it: start a commission. Or ask me, I may already be working on something similar.

Wiring and safety

I rewire every piece with new cables and sockets. Wall and hanging pieces are connected by a qualified electrician.

Care

Dust with a dry cloth. The patina is part of the piece, so please don’t polish the original object. Made in my studio at Frankfurter Allee 6, Berlin.
