Frederik Molenschot created his ‘Lockdown Series’ during the global pandemic. The series was designed to convey light, hope and inspiration during the extensive periods of isolation caused by COVID-19. This wall sconce with three hooks on which to hang a hat, umbrella or coat is designed to shine a light on objects that are typically used every day but have instead become household items during this period of lockdown. When on, this piece creates a mural-like monument to the objects.
