This lamp was created as the inspiration project in Design Methodologies class, winter 2011. We were asked to create a three-dimensional object that would represent our own personal inspiration. I saw inspiration as a nest; small pieces of hand-picked thoughts or object that come together to create an idea. Broken forks, knives, and spoons were twisted together with wire to create my personal nest. This represents the ingestion of inspiration, which forms the idea (the light), which creates the final product (the lamp).
