The Healaray

Oh how I love this table lamp called The Healaray, from around 1930, England. I would put it on my future desk.
Beautiful!

James Gallagher

"I believe in the secret behavior of human beings. Capturing a fleeting moment or revealing a hidden world is what I strive to do. And if I’m successful, I am able to glimpse some of the beauty, ugliness, solitude, and desire that exists in us all. 

My collaged pieces focus on personal space, physical relationships, and enigmatic situations. The human forms that I create have obscured identities, allowing for their actions to convey the drama. I construct my scenes by sifting-through, and piecing-together imagery cut from obscure books and magazines. In a constant state of layering paper, moving shapes, adding and subtracting colors, I am waiting for figures to form, and something exciting to happen. And when it does, when I have spotted that brief moment in time that feels so natural, or unnatural, that’s when I leave it up to the viewer to decide what it all means. "

as good as new

I'm a great admirer of monochromatic color play, mixed with usual or unusual objects.
In this case, furniture shop called  As good as new , centers around the idea of finding old furniture, fixing it and coloring it in grey. Everything they offer is in grey and as good as new!
I think, the result is quite amazing!
