Firefly Lamp

Firefly Lamp Metal Sculpture

I recently spent some time on my parent's property and had the opportunity to take advantage of my
father's stockpile of  scrap metal and also expunge some of the creative urges that have been building up doing solely science.


I used an old bedlamp which I cut and polished for the thorax and wings, a door knob for the transition from thorax to head,
sprinkler connectors for the head, fencing wire for the legs and
a 40W orange globe for the abdomen.
Therefore, the bug also doubles as a light (see images below).
