MARIE KHOURI BIOGRAPHY

Vancouver-based sculptor, Marie Khouri, represents the broad multi cultural and diverse demographic of Western Canada. Born in Egypt and raised in Lebanon, Khouri has developed a vast range of cultural and historical influences within her practice. With a childhood interrupted during the Lebanese Civil War, Khouri was relocated to Spain, Italy and Canada, finally settling in Paris where she was classically trained in sculpture at l’École du Louvre. On her return to Vancouver, a retrospective of her life took form in her sculpture, reflecting a passion for innovation and spontaneity.

Shroom

SHROOM PENDANT LIGHT

CONCEPT:

Have a look at our Shroom Pendant Light.  Karice was delighted to travel down the rabbit hole to design and create it’s Shroom Pendant Luminaire.

Shroom is a new innovative lighting design. Originally designed for the Alice in Wonderland themed bar display at IDS Vancouver 2016. The light is a piece of abstract art that has a loose artistic impression resembling a mushroom shape.

The LED pendant is composed of 30 vertical aluminum blades (gills) that are intricately held together by a cleverly designed, milled aluminum top and bottom cap. The light is illuminated from within its acrylic core as well as by downlight. Illumination is provided by 12V energy efficient LEDs. The light provides both mood and task lighting. A mesmerizing display of light is created by the cast of light as it reflects onto the aluminum blades. Each viewing angle produces a new result.

Shroom can be suspended on its own, or increase the fun by hanging a multiple arrangement of the pendants.

The Phoenix light suspends from a simple coaxial cable.  The approximate size of the light is 21″ x 18″, although variation occurs with the specific curvature of the wings and tail.  Each bird is unique in appearance.  The wings and tail are heat treated to enable beautiful variation in coloration.  No two birds will be alike.

Da Vinci – Infinity 1519 Pendant

The Infinity 1519 Pendant  resembles a setting sun, borrowing heavily from Renaissance-era design, and is appropriately named for the year Leonardo Da Vinci passed away.

DA VINCI COLLECTION  INFINITY 1519 Pendants

The Da Vinci Collection is based on the challenging premise of using modern technology to create an original avant-garde suite of luminaire pieces that accurately portray the spirit of what Leonardo was doing in the late 15th and early 16th centuries.  Specifically, the objective was to reflect the mechanics of Da Vinci, and to reflect his approach in magnifying and projecting light.

The new edition of this beautiful lighting series is made using genuine brass pieces that are antiqued to reflect an old age vintage for that era.

To complete the collection, the Infinity 1519 is an avant-garde luminaire symbolizing a setting sun, as 1519 was the year Leonardo da Vinci passed away.  The ringed capsule has a seemingly endless horizon, so the sight line is infinite.  It can be displayed as a hanging pendant or suspended within  a half moon table lamp.

Handcrafted Lighting made in Canada Local to Vancouver, BC

As with all Karice product, all lights are handcrafted in our facility in South Surrey.
This new lighting design is available as part of a collection of five pieces that includes the main chandelier, a wall sconce, two table lamps and a multiple lamp pendant/chandelier.
