The core idea is sustainability; using making skills to create a solar light from recyclable materials.
I'm inspired by the making skills of individuals and communities that have very few resources. They are able to make use of materials available to them to provide for themselves items that are needed every day.
Here, I have collected aluminium drink cans, coat hanger wire, repurposed LED globes, and with my own making skills, I've built a light - worthy of hanging from any bush tree!

Concept
With the knowledge that the shape of the light source affects the subsequent shadow/light display on objects, the intent was to emulate the effect of sunlight through the leaves of a tree.
