It all begins with inspiration, which is the foundation of all creativity. Particles of Light, as their name suggests, are inspired by Light, as well as by geometry, natural order, and abstract expression. Light is a symbol of divinity, life, positivity, joy, and celebration. With such symbolism, Particles of Light are more than mere ornaments. Each of them is a materialized form of infinite shapes of Light, unique in its expression.
The base for creating these artworks is wood, a natural and warm material. The overall dimension is 14x14x4.5 cm, allowing the object to stand independently on a table or shelf as a sculpture. The finishing touch is with 24k gold leaf, applied to previously prepared layers of preparation and bole. Gold as a material symbolizes lasting value as well as the symbol of Truth. Through the combination of wood and metal materials, as well as the colors black and gold, a balanced composition and reflection are achieved, exuding an inspiring, meditative, and vivid appearance.
In addition to symbolism and materials, the characteristic of light particles is handmade craftsmanship that requires exceptional precision and skill. Every detail is carefully planned, crafted, and requires several working days for each piece. As an architect and professor who, in her work, uses modern technologies in line with the times, I have greatly missed the creativity of handcrafting. Particles of Light are the result of that love and respect for all of our ancestors and contemporaries who, through their hands, translate ideas, shaping unique works.
Considering the entire process, it is clear that each Particles of Light are symbol of imagination, skill, and dedication. When you choose a Particles of Light as a gift or a part of your home, you know that you are holding a piece of magic created with love and care.
