The work presented in Reflection is the result of this thought and design process.
The Fan light is an expressive and imposing light, its wide span crosses the space
with strong, defined lines. It is figurative and abstract at the same time thus creating
an aire of both familiarity and estrangement.
The Line of trees, Landscape and Leaves are figurative works which evoke pieces of
nature.
Line of trees draws on architectural models, depicting a promenade lined by trees.
Landscape is reminiscent of soft hills glowing at dawn.
Leaves is very figurative with its brass leaves, yet at the same time controlled
through the strict arrangement along a circular path.
The topic of symmetry and the archaic is further explored in lights such as the
Salzburg wall lights, the Six tubes ceiling light or the Tulip family.
Six tubes, similar to the Leaves lights, is organized through vertical elements
arranged in a circular shape.
The Salzburg wall lights are symmetric along a central line, giving a certain
importance to the object it frames.
The Tulip family is based on the simple and archaic shape of an arch. It exists as a
single element, or in a group of three, five or nine arches. The multiple arches are
placed in a symmetrical arrangement.
The Swan, Spiral, Dawn and Curves is a series of lights designed by Alberto Gaiotto.
Nature is interpreted in a playful, light manner in these pieces.
