This summer Oscar Carlson, our incredibly talented Job Captain, took part in Anderson Ranch Arts Center’s workshop called “Modernism, Design & the Luminaire”. The week-long session introduces students, via image and lecture, to the theory of Modernism, the design process and lighting principles. Each student designed and crafted their own project using mixed-media techniques. Oscar’s work connects life and light through the use of metal as an organically composed exoskeleton as the light source, and controls light through the use of Plexiglass and edge treatments.
Through experimentation, he was able to bring life to something made from very cold and sterile materials. We are so proud of his talents and appreciate Oscar’s creativity and artistic endeavors. For more on this class visit Andersonranch.org.

I can imagine immediately some fun and functional applications in bringing natural light , moonlight as well, into otherwise mundane spaces.
Congratulations !!
