At their fourth exhibition during the Milan design show voonwong&bensonsaw presented an installation of bone china lighting in the renowned artistic district of Brera. The exhibition was visited by over 1000 people during the six days, with over 150 people attending the opening night party, sponsored by Tiger Beer of Singapore
The installation was the result of a series of experiments with hand made-bone china castings to place the 200 year old craft into a new context. The collection of light objects exploited the inherent properties of translucency and strength of this beautiful ivory coloured material. The modularity and the flexibility of the pieces are an interesting result of the size limitations imposed by the firing process.
