RARE MING LIGHT OBJECT, ALDO VAN DEN NIEUWELAAR

A single unit of an imaginary grid...

To avoid arbitrary artistic choices, Aldo van den Nieuwelaar restricted himself to a three dimensional grid. Most of his designs are based on it. With the Ming he shows us a single unit of the grid. Like a molecule of all of his structures.

It is not about the object, but about the space left open. The immaterial part, consisting of light. The points indicate directions along the X, Y and Z axis, as if van den Nieuwelaar wants us to imagine it to go further into space.

This is a very rare item. Only about 20 were produced by Boops. It has a dimmer button on the side to adjust the light. This one has never been used before. The condition is perfect
