A whorl in botany is an intrinsic pattern of growth, from the unfurling buds to the rings of a tree that all commence from a center point. The whorl is my inspiration for Light Whorl, a suspended sculpturethat combines light and walnut to create a unique artwork. The piece is composed of multiple layers of walnut veneer formed into waves to appear in the moment of unfurling with LED tubes weaved throughout to illuminate the contours of the whorl. The artwork is a dynamic feature to suit the multiple functions and match the energy of the party room.
