week 7: Sharon Marston's chandeliers
Sharon Marston's passion is working with light, and this began from photographing costume designs. Marston was captivated by the woven nylon that illuminated beautifully under the camera lights. The measurements of the chandelier above the dining table are 1200mm H 1700mm. The type of light is a pleat light- woven polymer, end emitting polymer fibre optics.
Marston's creations are fascinating because of their unique and exiting style.; They give a sense of sophistication and glamour. For my final outcome I may include fibre o optic lights around the outside of it , but I need to think about how the lights will work if they are separated from the main compartment; Therefore I would have to place a light below the fibre optics to allow them to light up.
If the fibre optic lights do not work, I will think of another solution to light up my sculpture such as battery powered lights; I will buy multiple lights and attach them around the inside of my chandelier.
I intend to create a similar shape to the pleat light; My sculpture will include recyclable materials such as plastic bottles and blue plastic cups and will be formed into a cone shape.
