About The Alien 燈飾

一個源自女性感知嘅故事——細膩而謹慎咁骨化成形，同樣細心咁滋養其根系，喺根與根之間保持並創造出留白空間。彷彿骨骼賦予咗呢個纖細、堅定而強韌嘅存在以生命同成長，繼而發現自己沉浸喺光芒之中，換句話講，一道由內綻放嘅光。Sepideh 呢個名源自「異鄉人」嘅概念——當一個人感覺自己好似外來者或者異鄉人嘅時候，佢內心嘅根就好似新生命一樣。內在嘅根渴望得到釋放，同時依附住邊界上安全嘅支點。

Unique Properties: A story that originated from the sense of women - as delicately and carefully, ossified and just as carefully nurtured its roots by maintaining and creating empty spaces between them. It is as if the bones gave life and growth to its delicate, firm, and strong existence and then found itself immersed in a light, or other words, a light that blossomed from within.
Dimensions & Packaging: This work is based on parametric design and therefore its dimensions can be changed according to the place of use.
This means that these dimensions are proportional and due to the modularity of the parts and can be easily adjusted in molds with different dimensions.
height 330mm, width 200mm x 15mm. beam 360 degrees.

Production Technology: This lighting was created and inspired by looking inside myself and the human and emotional aspects of the people around me at this time when the world is all speaking with one voice about women and their life and manifestation in the world. Now that the lighting structure grows its roots from the delicate and hollow network inside and reaches its safe and reliable framework from every angle, it turns that structure into a connected whole and a pure and integrated structure. When the tubular pieces are based on their foundations and become pillars like a chest protecting the heart, it creates a pure being. That is when the light manifests in it. Light and light and light and ...
Design Challenge: To create this the designer aimed to innovatively combine 3D printing technology with modular organic forms so the entire piece could be produced in a specific way, with ecological materials.
Research: In designing this work, I found myself as a human and a woman inside it. In order to follow my first idea and inspiration from this piece, I based my research more on understanding & touching the feminine feeling that arose from looking at powerful women around the world. As a designer, I feel the responsibility to design works that give the human soul a sense of value to reach light and brightness regardless of gender.
Inspiration: I got its name from the alien, Alien is an adjective, and it means when someone or something has distinctive features with the characteristics of a place, time, or style, so when a person feels like a foreigner or alien, her inner roots are like a new life.The roots inside have a longing to be freed and rely on the safe point of the boundary. It grows strong and delicate so that it can establish and strengthen itself in the framework of wealth and strength and its foundation and rely on itself.
Project Duration: The project started in AUGUST 2022 Zanjan and finished in NOVEMBER 2022-ZANJAN-IRAN
Operation Flow: The Alien light has been designed to provide both direct downlighting and indirect side lighting.The Alien offers a beautiful play of light and reflection throughout the day. When illuminated, soft, lines of light appear. The Alien, its form gives the illusion of floating in a mysterious, and encourages the audience to discover. Everyone can hang it into the place with very amiable atmosfere.
