I took this week as an opportunity to redefine my concept for this this project; this included changing my choice in materially, which in turn changed the production process I was going to pursue. After brainstorming how I could improve the form and functionality, in terms of relating it to a personal narrative, I decided to draw inspiration from the frequent power outages I experienced throughout my childhood. However, I didn’t feel like the narrative was fully resolved and came back to the idea of using Arabic designs and imagery I explored in F1 as a decorative feature.
Product Statement (In Progress): ________ is a set of 2 tea light candle holders that drew its form and functionality from the frequent power outages experienced throughout my childhood whilst living in Bahrain. The products use their light source to cast decorative shadows around its surrounding environment.
