About the Item
Wall lamp II by Kajsa Willner
Dimensions: 60 x 4 cm
Materials: polarized filters, disposable plastic
Polarized portraits
Polarized portraits is a set of wall lights and lamps that use polarized light to reveal stress patterns in clear plastic, mimicking the function of a polarized light microscope. A concept first born in a former collaboration with a material scientist in a project where science met design called What Matter_s.
Willners research and exploration of the properties of polarized light – an optical phenomenon that occurs when waves of light oscillate in a single plane – led to experiments with light polarizers and different disposable plastics to play with bending, blocking and transforming light and force interference in the plastic to create various colorful material portraits.
In Polarized Portraits Willner sends polarized light through disposable plastic revealing hidden colors and gradient spectrums to draw attention to the dilemmas surrounding plastic waste. Willner’s work plays with the optical phenomenon of polarized light microscopy to create an imaginative x-ray of planet Earth. The pieces examine how disposable plastic can become aesthetic optical art ‘portraits’ of our world, while remaining environmentally harmful plastic waste.
Studio Kajsa Willner is a cross-disciplinary business working with designing products on commission and for studio production, visualizing spatial installations, as curator and exhibition architect and with initiating new projects in collaboration with other organizations or partners.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
