For a Pakistani Artist though, a Light Bulb can be decorative even before it gets upcycled. In her winning masterpiece featured in slate.com Anila Quayyum Agha proved that a single lightbulb can create a roomful of tasteful, artistic, if not cultural design. “Agha’s stunning piece is an obvious crowd-pleaser, a 6½-foot square laser-cut, black lacquer wood cube suspended from the ceiling and lit with a single light bulb that casts breathtaking 32-feet-by-34-feet shadows to create instant architecture in an otherwise empty room.” See the winning piece here.
