  Object Lightbulb Site Abject
Photographic Study
Spring 2000 (Martha McQuade)


The second undergraduate design studio was structured around the idea of a proxy for the human body. We were asked to choose an object that we would design for, allowing us the latitude to respond to it in terms of form, concept, assembly, or material. I chose a common lightbulb, which invited reading on several levels. I was particularly interested in lightbulbs as everyday disposable objects that have instrumentally transformed contemporary life. The image on the right also suggests that the iconic status of an A-19 lamp is only one shape from a diverse family of forms.
