Encircle

markowitzdesign in collaboration with Glassblower – Ruth Allen
Australia

An exploration of the new territory found at the intersection of traditional craft techniques, Encircle presents a wall mounted luminaire that blends Adam Markowitz’s fine woodcraft with the traditional mouth blown glass of Ruth Allen.

Drawing on a rich history of Italian experimentation of blown glass luminaires, the light pushes each craftsperson to their limits to create a sconce that bends timber, glass and light.
