NIGHT SHIFT LIGHT FIXTURES

Wool and steel, felted handwoven light sculptures, 2024

EUNG123_2OFF.jpg

Night Shift is a collection of light sculptures that investigate how wool can be transformed through structural tension and material manipulation. Each piece is built from wool on a steel frame—first woven into an open grid on a hand loom, with intersections needle-felted, then reshaped through heat, water, and pressure. This process tightens the grid into a dense, architectural skin while the ends bloom into soft, unraveled textures. Light interacts with the textile in varied ways—diffusing behind felted surfaces or passing through openings to cast shifting shadows—creating forms that hover between object and atmosphere. Balancing control and release, Night Shift offers a quiet study in how repetition, intervention, and memory shape both texture and space, continuing an ongoing inquiry into textiles as structure, not just surface.

Pixel Crush is a collection of handwoven soft structures that investigates modularity, material logic, and sustainable form-making. Each fabric is constructed using a doubleweave technique with metallic film yarn, forming a consistent grid of padded pockets—each identical in size and filled during the weaving process to create a dimensional surface. This modular grid operates on two levels: first as a structural textile made of repeating woven units, and second as a prebuilt design system from which final forms emerge. Rather than relying on traditional cut-and-drape methods, bag silhouettes are assembled by joining these modules—guided by the fabric’s own logic and reducing material waste. The metallic yarn reflects light across the undulating surface, enhancing its sculptural quality. Pixel Crush continues an exploration of textile as structure, proposing a system where woven repetition becomes both the material and the blueprint for adaptable design.
