The sights of the globe and its people's ingenious creations are a constant source of inspiration for Stephen Burks. The transcendent, multicultural woven basket serves as a point of focus in Burks' Anwar LED Pendant from Parachilna. This piece captures the sheer finesse of a basket-maker weaving strands of wicker with the permeance of steel rods. Flowing from one ring to the other, metalsmiths painstakingly shape and weld individual rods in swift diagonals. Every view of this piece is a mesh of layering steel rods that conjures an image of a multi-volume form. No detail of metalsmith's hand is left bare as a dual-sided LED light glazes its surfaces for a stunning weave of highlights. The spacious ambient glow of the steel pairs with a seductive downlight.
