LARGE LAMPSHADE

Il Trittico | Scottish Opera (2023) | Designed by Charles Edwards

This large ceiling lampshade was made from a 6mm birch ply frame. I then created an internal and external pattern for the fabrics. The lining fabric pannels were sewn together and the outer fabric was stapled to the wooden frame. Once the fringing and braid had been added the piece was heavily weathered to match the rest of the set. This was achieved by using a sander, dirty down sprays and washes.
