In Scopas, round LED modules are put together in such a way, that a sphere with incomplete structure is formed. The luminaire thereby appears different from each viewing angle, generating a particular suspense and breaking with conventional forms. The suspense is further heightened by the contrast between the black fixture of the luminary and the white, diffused light. The apparent incompleteness of the lamp contrasts with its technical efficiency.
Statement by the Jury
Scopas fascinates with its unusual form which suggests perfection, yet remains incomplete. Scopas is both luminaire and light sculpture simultaneously.
