INGRID ROOS
Transform your environment with objects that capture the essence of color and light in perfect harmony
Ingrid Roos is an artist and designer who creates lighting fixtures, minimal light art objects, and installations that are characterized by their simplicity and elegance. Her work resides at the intersection of art and design, drawing profound inspiration from the ever-changing qualities of daylight.
Ingrid’s passion for light is at the heart of her creative journey. She is captivated by the way light transforms spaces, how it shifts in color and intensity, and how it patiently waits to unveil striking shadow patterns on surfaces. These moments of light reveal the inherent beauty and wonder of daylight, allowing Ingrid to fully immerse herself in the present and to design with a deep appreciation for the ephemeral effects that light brings to life.
In her work, Ingrid uses both natural and artificial light as her primary visual mediums. By combining these with transparent materials, she creates objects that engage in a dynamic dialogue with their surroundings, producing captivating effects such as shadows, color mixing, and reflections. Regardless of the form light takes, her concept centers on exploring its effects—shaped by the nature of the object—to reveal light and shadow as materials that are never fully realized, but always evolving. This endless source of inspiration fuels her desire to continually challenge herself and push the boundaries of her designs.
