We are surrounded by microorganisms that are invisible to the bare eye. Just like us, bacteria, yeast cells and fungi have their own origin and story. In collaboration with M.D. Ph.D. Volkan Özenci* I want to use a lamp as a vessel to bring that story with us into our homes in a new way - one that will alleviate fear and promote an emotional bond.  “In a New Light” challenges us to see a new connection between object and user by creating a visible link through bacteria, yeast and fungi, shining a light on the very thing we thought should stay hidden and putting it on display.   *Department of clinical microbiology, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska university hospital, Huddinge
