About Spike Lampe
Spike lampe leker med kontraster. Det gjenspeiler for punkkultur, men likevel for å roe skandinavisk stemning. Det er et omfangsrikt stykke, men likevel blir det varme lyset fokusert inn i et lite spisse område under stykket. Spike-lampen har et aggressivt utseende på grunn av metallspydene som peker mot betrakteren. Samtidig er det noe rolig med glattheten i den keramiske overflaten og varmt lys. Lampen skaper spenning i et interiør. Som et individ fra en subkultur.
