Beginning with a passion for glass and lights, Klove created the distinguished genre of sculptural glass lights. The duo excelled themselves with their Totem collection released early this year. Call it balanced or contrasted by, whichever way one looks at it, the collection also features jewel-like necklace lights, lighting up the other end of spectrum. At their last show, many a visitor spent meditative moments at the exhibit enclosure and came away energised by the sheer intensity of form and silhouettes at the extremely immersive presentation.
