Photon Oscillator
This work serves as a highly pragmatic table lamp.
The base provides this sculpture with stability as well as an interesting
story. It was used as a pilot element to
light off explosive gasses out of a flare stack in a refinery. The light fixture is one of the explosion-proof
variety, keeping all operators safe from explosion through the lighting off of explosive
gasses that might be present. The middle of
the sculpture is an explosion-proof junction box with a high-pressure oilfield valve
fitted to its front. This valve not only
looks very serious, but also controls the dimmer, which sets the light level. The finish is a durable powder coating.
