Tension Light
Jamie Wolfond Studio / 2020![](https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/919557fc2c64b36becc6cf35c759800253bd769382b835ac94a1a6cd7ac7d274/assembled_off_alt-crop.jpg)
The Tension Light has a delicate balance of forces that resolve to create a contradictory composition. A flexible rod applies tension to a soft electrical cord, positioning the diffuser away from the surface. A cylinder of machined steel counterweights the cantilever, grounding the object. Developed with Jamie Wolfond.
