LED Art: Playa Dreams by Kristen Hoard ($700)
Size: 20″ x 20″
This LED wall art was partially hand crafted by years and years of erosion creating the pitted effect on the recycled plow disk. It reminds me of burning man and the playa which is a pure white canvas for the art that I get to experience there.
It has a remote control that for the LED lighting, you can choose from any of the 300 lighting effects or have it cycle through all the colors slowly.
This is made from a recycled metal plow blade from a tractor. I get the piece sandblasted then cut the design with a plasma cutter then I grind the metal to a smooth finish. Then I cut the backing and add the textures with various grinders. I color the piece using dyes or patinas and get it powdercoated with a white clear gloss. The final step is to add the lighting and batteries.
It can run from an AC plug or it has holder to hold the battery pack of 8 AA batteries. It can also plugin with an AC Adapter. It has a heavy duty wire and weighs about 20 lbs, you can use a heavy duty 50lb wire hanger to hang it on the wall.
This is truly one of a kind piece because of the texture on the plow disc, I can make one similar just note it won't be as pitted.
