Casper Patrick - Contemporary Sculpture

I have been working with these unique sculptures for over 14 years. I have never been to art school and I think that is why my art has such a different look than other artists. Because I have never been told to do certain things, the ideas for my work have come naturally. The sculptures are made of steel and acrylic and contain light, so they are very beautiful in dark surroundings. 

The sculptures work as soft-lamps. I have had cooperation with Bang & Olufsen, and exhibitions the best places in Milan, Copenhagen, and London. Wallpaper* Magazine in 2003 chose my VITOS sculpture as one of the 100 hottest elements in the world.

Hopefully we’ll get some good responses…. What do you think?

An innovative initiative is taking place in the Philippines to bring sustainable lighting to homes in impoverished communities. Empty plastic bottles are installed in the roof, filled with water and bleach they refract sunlight. These “solar light bulbs” provide light equivalent to a 55watt light bulb.
