Strange Planet by Robert Foster

BY

March 16th, 2011

Strange Planet is a collection of new lighting works by Robert Foster, designer and founder of F!NK Design.

 

Ghost Adrift

The pieces do indeed look as if they might come from another galaxy or universe, with their zoomorphic shapes and mesmerising glow.

 

White Chrystalis

Foster loves to explore and push the boundaries between lighting installations and sculpture, engaging audiences in new and exciting ways.

If you’re in Canberra or its surrounds, this is an exhibition not to be missed.
