Description
-
Cape Town-based designer Heath Nash has been working primarily with trash since 2004—more specifically, with the repurposing of plastic waste. He has become known for his colorful, whimsical plastic lamps and other works created within a social and ecological context. The object shown here was created as part of “South meets North: Local Innovation. Global Conversation,” a workshop held at the MAK Design Space during Vienna Design Week 2014. Here, Nash combines discarded Lobmeyr glass with plastic waste. The aesthetic result of this work lies in the contrast between the refined and the discarded.
