Description

Each Venus lamp by Sarah Tracton is thoughtfully handcrafted through multiple stages to honour the unique nuances of its porcelain surface. The process involves shaping architectural clay sheets by pouring porcelain slip onto a plaster slab, carefully rolling the sheets, and allowing for slow drying before being fired. These lamps are distinguished by their luminous qualities, achieved by incorporating iridescent colors into the porcelain. The result is a radiant and otherworldly translucency when illuminated from within.

About Sarah Tracton Visit Showroom →

Drawn to exploring the infinite possibilities of porcelain translucency, fine artist and designer Sarah Tracton handcrafts lighting that is luminous, experimental and ethereal.  To achieve her lighting’s remarkable diaphanous effect, Sarah honed her artistry at the National Art School in Sydney, mastering an unique technique of pouring clay slip on a plaster slab, then heightening its luminous properties by adding iridescent colours to the porcelain, which results in exquisite celestial translucency when internally lit. She repairs the porcelain which has shattered in firing stages with Kintsugi gold leaf technique, combating wasting with circular economy. A dual existence as fine art and function design.  Each lit surface reveals unique one-of-a-kind idiosyncrasies, embracing the intriguing variations inherent in the handcrafting process.
