The animated form of Hive Lamp balances precariously on a steel prop. Reminiscent of a root or a nest but with a scale and presence of that competes with the human, the handmade paper skin is sliced in six places, it ’ s extremities amputed. We are left to imagine it ’ s reach when whole, how perhaps it will look once extended to finger the corners of the room, of the world. Through its cuts it bleeds light, it ’ s interior glowing softly through soft pink glass.
