About Spike Lampo

Spike-lampo ludas kun kontrastoj. Ĝi respegulas punk-kulturon, tamen por trankviligi skandinavan humoron. Ĝi estas volumena peco, tamen la varma lumo estas enfokusigita en malgrandan pintan areon sub la peco. La Spike-lampo havas agreseman aspekton pro la metalaj pikiloj montritaj al la spektanto. Samtempe estas io trankvila pri la glateco de la ceramika surfaco kaj varma lumo. La lampo kreas streĉiĝon en interno. Kiel individuo el subkulturo.

Inspiration
The Spike lamp is inspired by social distancing and fashion subcultures. The core of the design is also mimicing the contrariety of nature, how simplicity becomes complexity.

The main materials used in the Spike lamp are mold made ceramic sphere and metal spikes. Both materials have shiny surface that reflect the environment of the object. The interior of the lamp is contrasting to the outer area, because it has a warm and smooth texture.
Project Duration
The project started in June 2019 in Helsinki and finished in May 2020.
Operation Flow
The Spike lamp has a aggressive appearance because of the metal spikes pointing towards the viewer. At the same time there is something calm about the smoothness of the ceramic surface and warm light. The lamp creates tension in a interior.
