Miles Lighting

Miles is a collection inspired by the many parallels between music-making and glass-blowing. Formally there is a clear nod to brass instruments, an image that springs to mind when watching Lasvit’s craftspeople blowing glass. Less clear is the constant balance that must be maintained when pushing glass-making to its limit, one between innovation and the physical constraints of the material and techniques.

We might see that same balancing act being performed during a trumpet player’s solo or a jazz vocalist’s scat. Simple outer casings house the curvaceous and elegantly fluted horn shapes within. When stacked, these linked inner forms become a rhythmic sculpture of light, one that draws attention but is in harmony with any setting.
