New Resin Mushroom Lamps Embedded with<br />

LEDs on Driftwood by Yukio Takano<br />

Japanese artist Yukio Takano (previously) has a knack for recreating<br />

the delicate properties of mushrooms with dyed resins illuminated<br />

from the inside with hidden LED lights. The electrical components are<br />

then hidden inside real driftwood bases that sometimes incorporate a<br />

fancy retro “on/off” switch. Takano first exhibited his lights 12 years<br />

ago and they now disappear as fast as he creates them. Unfortunately,<br />

the pieces are too delicate to ship overseas, so he only produces<br />

and sells them locally.
