Fletcher Vaughan Is a talented 3D designer from Auckland (New Zealand). Sculpture "Stratospheric" - one of his most famous works, unremarkable during the day and absolutely fantastic at night.
The sculpture is made of artificial acrylic stone, a modern material invented in 1967. Four balls of different sizes are connected to each other, and LEDs are placed inside each ball, providing a soft and mysterious glow in the dark.
The author draws an analogy between the way the balls are connected in his sculpture and the blastocyst - the stage of development of the embryo, when it looks like a ball, consisting of many interconnected cells. Thus, he recalls the transience of life, procreation and death. Although it is unlikely, without knowing this author's philosophy, one can guess about it when looking at the sculpture.
Since 1999, Fletcher Vaughan has been operating under the name Fletcher Systems. Basically, the author is engaged in the creation of exclusive pieces of furniture and volumetric works of art. By the way, artificial stone is one of Fletcher's favorite materials.
