The ‘OMMA’ Light

Inspired by Pantala flavescens, the dragonfly known as “The Wandering Glider,” I explored the hexagonal geometry of its ommatidia through kirigami-based 3D studies. These forms became the foundation for a series of pendant lamps, developed through cyanotype experiments that examined light and shadow. The final pieces were crafted from watercolor paper, museum board, wire, and glue, with prototypes refined through laser cutting and digital modeling in Rhinoceros 3D.
