Off-the-shelf semi-truck exhaust parts of chromed stainless steel, various lighting components, 2700K LED bulb.
Selected for feature in the Head Hi Lamp Show / NYC x Design 2024.
Big Rig Sconce is a readymade utilizing semi-truck exhaust parts. The lamp takes the prefab pieces, meant to channel diesel emissions and repurposes them as light diffusers and reflectors. The light output and reflections are controlled manually by adjusting the position of the "rain flap" by hand, which dramatically alters its atmosphere. During a time of global controversy over the future of energy, the lamp is both a nod and subtle joke to the evolution of industry and perceived role of environmental politics. Without context however, it's also just a fun lamp!
