CIBONE œœ GALLERY @CIBONE AOYAMA
CIBONE GALLERY in CIBONE AOYAMA store opened in March 2006. We plan to have 6 exhibitions per year showing work by designers or artists which illustrate relationships between people and the things around them. Following the last exhibition Vol. 01 Wataru Komachi, Vol 2 will be Stuart Haygarth from 10th June 2006 - 2nd August 2006.
The exhibition will show 4 of Stuart's chandeliers made from the everyday things and rubbish that he has collected and transformed into lighting pieces which have their own character and message.

The Tide chandelier is part of a larger body of work based on a collection of 'man made' debris washed up on a specific stretch of Kent coastline. Stuart has been collecting material over a 2 year period and the work is still in progress. The material collected is sorted and categorized and several individual pieces of work are produced.
The Tide chandelier is created from clear and translucent objects, primarily made of plastic. Each object is different in shape and form, yet they come together to produce one sphere. The sphere is an analogy for the moon which effects the tides which in turn wash's up the debris.

The chandelier is made of 1000 exploded Party Poppers collected ( on 01.01.00 ) after the Millennium celebrations in London. Each Popper is suspended on a line from a platform above. The sculptural shape sways and moves like an organic form when hit by a breeze of air. Although this original light is a ' one off ' piece due to the narrative it will be recreated using new party poppers.
I will be making an edition of 20.

This is a linear chandelier created from a selection of found glass lamp shades. Solely each shade is not particularly eye catching but when grouped together in a unit they become harmonious and beautiful. This project is about re-cycling unwanted and discarded lampshades and reconfiguring them to create a stunning light. The chandelier reminds me of a family because each lampshade has its own character but when together they join forces and become one entity. Although using the same formula to construct the chandeliers each light would be original.

Stuart Haygarth
Of British origin but now residing and working in Germany.
In 1988 he graduated from Exeter University in graphic design after which he worked as an assistant photographer and later as a freelance photographer as well as lecturing in Photography at Plymouth University.He has worked in various fields such as advertising, design and publishing. Over the past 2 years he has had several exhibitions including Designers Block in London and at Comme de Garcon's Dover street market.
In the designboom competition he was nominated in the Re-cycle re-think category for the Millennium chandelier and the Shadey Family chandelier.
2 years ago he started his current design project, collecting all kinds of refuse and using this to recreate something new so giving these items a new life and new meaning. As a result each sculpture or chandelier is a totally individual piece.
