Illusionary Illuminating Fixtures

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Brighten Your Space with Light Spot by Robert Stadler

— September 29, 2011 — Art & Design
The layered Light Spot by Robert Stadler plays tricks with your eyes as the one dimensional wall piece becomes three dimensional once illuminated. Made up of a series of strategically placed plates, this wall art comes alive due to an optical illusion that is created once light hits the series of plates.

When speaking of the impact that this project has on personal perception the artist Robert Stadler states, "I enjoy revealing the strange sides to an object and making people love them. We easily reject the bizarre as it seems established that functional objects should be simple, self-explanatory, attractive etc. So I try to add a different dimension to my works, but without neglecting these rational parameters".

In keeping with his personal objective, it is clear that these tricky accessories are clever enough to fool our eyes with its multi-dimensional design. Decorate your space with the mind-boggling Light Spot by Robert Stadler that brightens any dull space with spirit.
