Rosa
“To speak truly, few adult persons can see nature. Most persons do not see the sun. At least they have a very superficial seeing.”*
Rosa is a folded paper lampshade which gives the often maligned compact fluorescent light bulb a new lease on life as the stamen of a budding flower.
Rosa’s geometric shape suggests an appraisal of nature which perceives a true form, an underlying geometry to be found in all flowers.
