Part of Haiiileen’s Nu-Wave Lamp Series, Nu-Uni Lamp (2024) transforms light into a sculptural meditation.
Each hand-shaped lamp radiates a chromatic glow from within its iridescent resin shell — a reflection of balance, brightness, and resilience.
The work represents a new phase of functional art in Haiiileen’s practice, where emotional energy is translated into form, texture, and light.

Description

Nu-Uni Lamp (2024) continues Haiiileen’s exploration of light as a living emotional medium, part of her celebrated Nu-Wave Lamp Series that reimagines functional lighting as sculptural, synesthetic art.

Each Nu-Uni Lamp serves as both an illumination device and a meditative object, crafted through the artist’s signature layering technique of resin, pigment, and mirrored surfaces. The iridescent textures ripple with movement — a visual echo of frequency and energy — while the embedded fluorescent core emits a steady, atmospheric glow.

The Nu-Uni Lamp embodies movement within stillness, translating the artist’s fascination with “staying bright in the midst of it all” into an object of vibrational calm.

“Swirling and twirling — this lamp reminds me that even in motion, light finds a way to be still.”

Conceptual Framework

• Investigates illumination as self-reflection — light as both aesthetic and emotional architecture.
• Blends functionality and fine art, blurring the line between sculpture and interior design.
• Expands the Nu-Wave lineage into a smaller, more intimate scale, introducing a series of seven handmade pieces.
• Expresses the artist’s devotion to frequency mapping, using iridescent layering to capture chromatic energy shifts.
• Symbolizes resilience through color and reflection, echoing the artist’s theme of synesthetic healing through light.

Archival Significance

• Marks the introduction of the Nu-Uni Lamp Series (2024) — a continuation of Haiiileen’s signature Nu-Wave lineage.
• Demonstrates the artist’s refinement of reflective pigment layering and geometric curvature.
• Serves as a precursor to large-scale works like Nu-Aciiid Wave Lamps (2025).
• Represents the artist’s ongoing inquiry into functional art as emotional technology.

“The Nu-Uni Lamp was born from the desire to hold light — to make it tangible, personal, and constant, even when everything else shifts.”
