Artecnica

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

Walking around Downtown Portland on a Sunday is so grand! My other half and I live right above the city, so we frequent often. This last Sunday, we noticed these amazing paper chandeliers, that must be covered in tyvek (heat seal) everywhere we went. I of course took pictures of them because I am in awe of them and had to know who the designer was. (I was thinking to my self, of a way to “try” and do something “close” to what I saw………YEAH,RIGHT! My camera and picture taking skills do not show how amazing these chandeliers are. I LOVE THEM!

The artist isn’t local (dammit!). He is from the Netherlands and his GORGEOUS work is all over the world!! So if you are like me and haven’t heard of him, ( you are about to) his name is Tord Boontje.

Midsummer Light could be yours, for $72 from Stella’s on 21st Ave in the Alphabet district.

Until next time,

Stephanie
