Designed by Umut Yamac for Vibia, Array is an exploration of thread and its potential to create lightweight and dynamic sculptures of light. Composed of an array of fine technical threads pulled taut between two aluminium rings, the collection presents a variety of large-scale conical and cylindrical silhouettes that can be combined together to form a compelling installation. The spacing distribution of the threads creates translucency and volume, whilst the layering effect gives the illusion of movement.
At SOLIDIFIED, a curated exhibition by established designers with a strong focus on material happening during Milan Design Week 2024, Studio Umut Yamac will be presenting an immersive collection of lighting and objects. United by the theme of movement, each piece is an exploration of a contrasting material; paper, thread and stone, and its potential transformation into a lightweight fluid volume.
