Someone gave me this Kodak camera the other day, and I decided to ‘upcycle’ it into a lamp for photographers. This is the only one there will be unless someone sends me an old camera to work with.

About destructivetesting
I'm a self-taught artist who prefers to use found objects in ways that were never intended. I'm not interested in making 10 or 100 of the same object.

I consider my clocks to be small sculptures with moving parts. And, my lamps to be small sculptures with light. My mirrors are reflective sculptures.
