A Kite, wall hanging lighting sculpture that derived its form from tradtional Chinese Swallow kites.
Motifs of butterflies, swallows, and mountains—symbols deeply rooted in Chinese folk art—emerge as sculptural lamps. Shades are crafted from bamboo and Kozo paper, painted with mineral pigments and ink, and sealed with shellac, a natural resin secreted by insects. Each lamp rests on bamboo poles and stone-like bases assembled from 19th-century salvaged architectural wood sourced in New York City.
H 38” x W 38”x D 7”
Reclaimed Vintage Redwood, Paper, Bamboo, Shellac, Mineral Pigment.
From Yuxuan Huang's 2025 Collection 'My Grandpa Once Taught Me How to Fly A Kite'.
