Recycled polypropylene and polished stainless steel meet in a lighting object that makes their differences part of its appeal. An irregular plastic mass contrasts with the smooth tube, while illumination brings function into the sculptural encounter. James Shaw treats discarded plastic as a material with expressive possibilities, giving new presence to a substance often valued only for its convenience.
