Peter Kovacsy?s Vestige Casts a Transcendent, Ethereal Light
The haunting luminescence of the Western Australian moonlight takes form in a brutalist light sculpture, Vestige, designed by Peter Kovacsy.
Noting the amount of effort required to craft this haunting light source, to call the Vestige for Ross Gardam a mere source of illumination seems to do the spectral optical device disservice. The idea behind its design: to stir up a sense of wonderment. With over three decades of expertise turning glass into objects of awe, renowned glass artist Peter Kovacsy seems the ideal talent to bring such imagination to life.
The solid parabolic cone with a concave face made from cast crystal glass results in a sculptural light source that illuminates with a spectral glow.
Unveiled at the TRANSCENDENCE exhibition as part of Milan Design Week 2023, the exquisite Vestige’s brutalist-inspired sculptural silhouette revels in the radiant inherent properties of opaque glass, communicating both a delicate aura contrasted by the lamp’s stout stance. The design is also a reference to the remote southern area of the Western Australian environment, a moody landscape muse where moonlight exists as an ethereal glowing presence.
Each piece is handmade from cast glass and formed to sit upon a raw aluminum base. Paired with a machined conical dimmer that adds to its solid weighty presence, the limited edition series of five light sculptures are also polished and waxed by Kovacsy himself.
