Lindsey Adams
In response to the brief of The Knockoff Show, I thought immediately of the ubiquitous design of Lindsey Adelman's Bubble Chandelier because I feel such a personal connection to it. My time working with Lindsey was my introduction to lighting, and my hands were very much involved while she was developing the Branching Bubble system. It was a formative time I think upon with great nostalgia.
In this way the piece is an homage to Lindsey and a nod to my past. Both Lindsey and I rely heavily on "systems" of parts that can be put together in a countless number of ways. This knock-off substitutes my kit of parts for hers, making analogies along the way. Her lines are tubes, my lines are the light bulbs. Her bulbs are globes, mine are the double diamond FKA Themis shapes. Her connectors are Y's and mine are hubs from the SHY fixtures.
