Exhausted
UTS Award for Sustainable Design - Workshopped 19 (2019)
The approach of using found materials, welding, grinding, sculpting the form gives Exhausted its individualism, its marks, its boldness, its blemishes, its craftsmanship. No two lights will be the same, each form will be an organic unique piece. Resting in its environment, its striking wriggle reminds us of the versatility of reusing, its joins and marks give it a sense of humanity, its chrome finish highlights the motion of ‘polishing’ ‘covering’ ‘hiding’ on a moral and aesthetic level.
