130+ Artists Illuminate the Vast Creative Possibilities of the Nightlight
Artists iterating on a seemingly mundane object is one of our favorite exhibition concepts. Vintage envelopes, coasters, and matchboxes are just a fraction of the items galleries have offered as unique canvases for small works, and now, we can add nighlights to that list.
On view through June 26, DUDD LITE is a collaboration between the design collective Dudd Haus and the gallery The Future Perfect. Curated through an open call that garnered nearly 400 submissions, the playful exhibition presents more than 130 artist-designed nightlights made from stained glass, wood, sea shells, ceramic, cotton, and more. The small works hover between sculpture and functional object, each reflecting a distinctive sensibility and approach to a household staple. See all designs on The Future Perfect website.
