Iris Design Studio takes light bulbs...bare ordinary looking light bulbs and by cutting them, combining them, suspending them and more, creates functional art.
For her Perito Series, she cuts them in half and artfully applies them to mirrored surfaces of different sizes, shapes and colors. Below are their models.

Perito Moreno Large (l.) and Medium (r.):
Perito Moreno Small(l.) and Parallel(r.):
Perito Moreno Single and Dual:
