Fantastic Forgeries
Object
The object that I have chosen to reproduce for the Fantastic Forgeries project is a contemporary item (2014) named the Blue Sky Lamp by dutch designer Chris Kabel. The main characteristic of this piece is filtering and manipulating light to simulate the colors of the sky on a sunny day.
The actual idea of filtering/manipulating light has a obvious but close connection to me as a audiovisual designer. In fact, film as a medium wouldn't exist without its first and foremost ingredient; light. With this as main focus I hope to find a way to connect the practice Digital Craft to my study.
Blue Sky Lamp 2014
Designer Chris Kabel
Launched in 2014
Materials LED, resin and aluminium
Dimensions 60 / 50 / 30 cm and 35 / 30 / 18 cm
The lamp re-creates the light of the sky on a sunny day. The blue color of the lamp is caused by exactly the same physical effect that happens when light from the sun enters the earth's atmosphere. Special particles in the resin diffuse the cold light of the powerled and disperse the blue lightwaves whilst the orange part of the light beams on.
Conceived for the Winter Anti Depression Show at MARRES in Maastricht the lamp was originally meant to make people happier as it is scientifically proven that light with this blue color brightens people's moods.

Three main elements of the object
• A minimalistic but functional design.
• Filtering/manipulating light
• Re-creates the colours of the sky and sunlight on a sunny day.

Designer Yoshiki Matsuyama
Launched in 2014
Sky Lighthouse by Yoshiki Matsuyama is a lighting object that embodies the colors of the sky – the blue of the sky, red of the sunset, and all of the colors in between. Natural phenomena is displayed through the color scheme.

Inspiration
To recreate this object I have researched various methods and techniques that have altering light as its essence, with stained glass as main focus for my copy. This old technique incorporates storytelling as well as filtering sunlight, for that reason I believe that it connects incredible well with the original object.

Experiments
Execution
After some experimentation with different techniques and materials I made the decisions to rebuild the lamp with mixing several layers of coloured acrylic that will imitate the colours of the sky. It will be a abstract representation that is close to the concept of stained glass. This will be combined with with frosted white acrylics to diffuse the light and colours.
