Lindsey Adelman — Lighting Collection

Lind­sey Adel­man was born in New York City in 1968. Her cur­rent work is a cul­mi­na­tion of end­lessly mak­ing her things with her hands as a lit­tle girl, to receiv­ing a BA in Eng­lish Lit­er­a­ture, to work­ing for the Smith­son­ian, to find­ing her way to RISD to earn a BFA in Indus­trial Design. An ongo­ing inter­est in com­bin­ing the hand-crafted with the ma-chine-made, the sen­sual with the prac­ti­cal, and the fem­i­nine with the mas­cu­line con­sis­tently marks her work. Adel­man founded the com­pany But­ter with David Weeks in 2000 where they designed afford­able prod­ucts for the home until 2005. Since then Adel­man has focused on her own line of hand-blown glass light­ing as well as an ongo­ing series of draw­ings painstak­ingly crafted with strands of human hair. The col­lec­tive work has been included in the Cooper-Hewitt Design Tri­en­nial and Design Miami and has received awards from the ICFF Edi­tors, ID, and Blue­print. It has been pub­lished in numer­ous mag­a­zines and books. Lind­sey lives with her hus­band Ian and their son Finn in Brooklyn.
