Obviously there are light bulbs in chandeliers, but what about a chandelier MADE of light bulbs? I think this this is stunning! This masterpiece called “What Watt?” is the work of Tim Fishlock
What Watt? is a memorial to the incandescent lightbulb. It’s a spherical chandelier made up of 1243 suspended bulbs of various shape and size, illuminated by a single low-energy light source. By 2011, all forms of incandescent light bulb will have been phased out in favour of greener alternatives. What Watt? marks the passing of a design that has remained relatively unchanged since its invention 130 years ago. An edition of ten. POA.
There’s another really cool shot after the break… you should look at it cause I said so!
