Oscillara started, like most of our projects, with a random pile of stuff we didn’t ask for but couldn’t ignore. In this case, it was a pile of ordinary, white, and stubbornly uninspired PVC pipes until it started hinting at light. That’s usually how it goes. We don’t sit down with a blueprint; we start tinkering and see where the pieces want to take us.
As the pipes gathered into clusters, they demanded company: 3D-printed caps lined with mirrors, magnets to snap them into place, and LEDs to make them glow. Ten pieces formed a triangle, six triangles built a hexagon, and suddenly the scraps had a rhythm. Steel gave the shape backbone, bolts gave it muscle, and light gave it breath.
Oscillara is still very much alive—half artwork, half puzzle. It asks practical questions (how do we move it without wrecking our backs?) right alongside playful ones (what if we twist it this way?). The fun is in the becoming. Oscillara isn’t just an object; it’s a process you can still feel humming inside it.
Oscillara is also ready to get out and play. If you’d like to bring its glow to your next event, you can rent the piece directly from us. Drop us a line by email for details and pricing—we’ll be happy to make the connection.
