One of the huge Chinese beaded chandeliers, ornate with seven-color tassels. This chandelier is assembled with exquisite skill from more than 400 thousand glass beads. The strings of colored ribbons are decorated with peony and butterfly patterns.

Total height is about 4 meters, 2.10 meters in diameter, weight is 127.5 kilograms. It is made in 1918 in Dongyang and entered into history as “The First Lantern of China”. Like many Chinese art pieces, the chandelier has a name (as complicated as the device itself), “寶蓋索絡聯三聚七彩穗羊角燈”.

Exhibited every four years for a few days in Lu family ancestral shrine (東陽盧宅), Dongyang, Zhejiang.

Interdependency generates specificity for an urban landscape and fosters relationships in the revalorised continuüm. Expression is found in the materialisation of light as a metaphorical guide throughout an architectural project.

~Fragment of a series of visualisations on a pavillion reflecting on relationships though time. Looking back, looking forward, peace in wartimes. Mental space is enlightened. Part of a student project by Ar. Kimberly Wouters for UAntwerpen 2020.

Zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort - Sekunden später ist der richrige Augenblick schon wieder fort

A little poem about the right moment: being the right time at the right place

[dbaydenny]

Dark and light playing

creating patterns, outlines, traps

for us to escape,

cages to retain us in,

protect from darkness and glare.
