OPENING LIGHT /        GESTURE 1






Within the unconstrained ease of an everyday gesture a poetic quality may be concealed.
Imagine, for instance, a still darkened room in which a hand gently moves towards the curtain. Envision how that hand slowly pushes the textile aside, allowing the daylight behind it to gradually seep in. Now see how the light at first takes the form of a stripe, condensed and intense, but soon expands and spreads, eventually fills the entire room. A situation which, determined by the serene interplay between movement and circumstances, was above all the inspiration from which Charlotte Jonckheer conceived this creation.

A luminous object that only reveals its full qualities when it is operated; in interaction with the user and the environment. A lamp which is more than just a lamp, turns out to be an instrument that, beyond its function, aims at the emotional capacity of a space.

Inside a solid and opaque entity of sculpted Belgian bluestone, lined with stainless steel, a light well is installed, dormant and available. However, that light only becomes visible when the embedded and reflective stick is withdrawn. A required action which, furthermore, determines the intensity of the light and, as such, radically unites the subject and the object.

CPC TABLE LAMP







In the CPC (Chaud Paper Composite) Table Lamp, Pierre de Nozay legs, a stainless steel body and a Chaud Paper Composite (CPC) shade are combined thoughtfully to create a delicate table lamp with light peeking through. The thin CPC shade, a mixture of waste paper & stone dust, is hand pressed and bended before being held in a fine crafted stainless steel curve.

CPC SCULPTED LIGHT /STANDING






15082021 Structure 1 /Standing

In the CPC Sculpted Light 15082021, four paper shades are held in a delicate frame, resting on a tall structure, both crafted out of Pinus Sylvestris. The thin paper curves are made of a unique mixture of waste paper and stone dust - the Chaud Paper Composite (CPC). A material Charlotte Jonckheer started developing in 2018, exploring its structural, functional and aesthetic qualities in a range of sculptural objects and studies. As much as the CPC approximates the appearance of stone, it offers possibilities that no stone could achieve. For one, the composite is light and flexible and before being pressed and dried, allows to take on any shape imaginable. For the Sculpted Light 15082021 the CPC paper sheets are manufactured in a specific way to obtain its open structure, allowing a playful light effect.

The sculpted light can both function as a pendant light or as a standing light, as presented here, elevated on the Structure 1.
Within the design, modularity plays an important role. Most separate elements can be easily dismantled, offering the possibility for customization, reducing the packaging size and allowing an accessible reparation of the separate parts if necessary. Materials: Light fixture: brushed aluminum Sculpted light: CPC shades and Pinus Sylvestris Structure 1: Pinus Sylvestris All separate elements are designed and made in Belgium by Charlotte Jonckheer in collaboration with talented craftsmen.
