Found at sea

Oz's post reminded me of a piece i have always loved

"This beautiful gift from the sea is made of debris collected from the beach at Dungeness, a magical stretch of land under a nuclear reactor in southern England. The artist has gathered the pieces for years, and meticulously put them together to form this delicate work of art. It is functional, as a light. And it is also a statement about our disposable society that wastes and pollutes everywhere. The artist/designer specialises in using everyday objects in a way that changes our perception of them."

this reminded me of more chandeliers...


the usage of old cutlery is also very interesting... (remind me to show you the bracelet i wear daily made out of a fork)
