This research process has been meticulously documented in Arbel’s monograph, Omer Arbel - a dynamic, highly visual, and in-depth study of the celebrated multi-disciplinary artist and designer. The metal, when hot, does not come in contact with oxygen on the glass side of the form, leaving an iridescent finish creating an eye-catching contrast with the coarse oxidised finish found on the inside surface. Due to the stark differences in the two materials composition, the glass form shatters off during the cooling process, leaving behind a metallic shadow of itself. In the creation of 113, a glass form is blown conventionally, then molten copper is poured into the hot glass vessel. Over the course of the nine-day demonstration, the sculptures will be carried from the museum’s John Madejski Garden in several dignified, exalted processions, into the V&A’s Santa Chiara Chapel. 113 embodies the unexpected beauty of manipulating the two materials to create significant discrepancy in their respective rates of expansion.

During the performance, common copper and glass antiquities procured from flea markets and vintage stores will be returned to their raw materials, and used to create a series of new 113 artefacts.Ī delicately intricate sculpture, 113 is created as a result of an ongoing series of experiments exploring the relationship between copper alloys and glass. For the first time in the museum’s history, the John Madejski Garden will transform into an immersive glass-blowing studio, with Arbel’s iridescent, fragile sculpture 113 taking centre stage over the course of the nine-day demonstration.

All Bocci designs are developed, engineered, and fabricated in-house through an infrastructure calibrated to provide full control over technique, quality, and scale. Today, Bocci has a growing portfolio of contemporary design ranging from light installations through to furniture and electrical sockets. The company launched with one product, 14, which became an instant classic and remains a design staple and bestseller. In 2005, Bocci was founded in a red barn surrounded by hay fields, on the periphery of Vancouver, Canada. Omer Arbel's work has been exhibited in various museums around the world.

His interdisciplinary practice spans multiple scales and cultural-economic contexts. Both lights can also be specified IP65, meaning they can be used outdoors and in other wet environments.īocci Creative Director Omer Arbel explores the intrinsic mechanical, physical, and chemical qualities of materials as fundamental departure points for making work.

The 's' designation of this surface light has a discrete 55mm (2.2') in diameter mounting plate designed to be mounted on walls as well as ceilings, with transformers mounted remotely. This surface light has a paintable 115mm (4.5') diameter mounting plate designed to be mounted on walls as well as ceilings. The 'sp' comes with a mounting plate large enough to cover a standard North American junction box. The 's' or 'sp' designation in this variation on the 14 refers to it being surface-mounted. 14 can be hung on a wall or ceiling which allows for a variety of compositional possibilities, ranging from ambient to punctuated dense clusters in specific high profile locations. Individual lights are visually quite subtle, but gain an atmospheric quality when multiplied and clustered in groups. This low-voltage wall- or ceiling-mounted light is a cast glass half sphere with a frosted cylindrical void that houses either a 10-watt xenon or 1.8-watt LED lamp.
