The first thing that comes to our minds when speaking of Latex is a latex condom or gloves or clothing. But, Israeli designer Eden Ohana breaks the limitations of this material with his unique and colorful collection of light series called ‘Blooming Molds’. Ohana creates some amazing organic shaped light designs by pouring latex into molds, which he calls the ‘volume definer’, specially created to make these lights appear inflated.
“The essence and objective of this project was to broaden the limits and limitations of the use of materials and existing objects and the reciprocity and connections between subject and material. The process begun with continuous exploration of borders and obvious limitations, and continued into investigation of various findings and results, breaking and demolishing selected objects that were re-built as past of the exploration. As a result I found the material that superseded the paradox, and its assignment delivered unlimited options of expressions.” – says Eden Ohana.
