In the hands of this artist, an ordinary light bulb becomes a thing of wonder

A geodesic dome with a single energy-efficient light bulb at its centre casts multicoloured light in every direction.

Dichroic Sphere is a light sculpture by Danish light artist and designer Jakob Kvist.

It consists of an aluminium geodesic dome structure, covered with acrylic sheets and dichroic film. Depending on the angle of the light that hits it, either emitted from within or shining on it from outside, the sphere and the area around it changes colour.
