Steven and William Ladd, two artists residing in Brooklyn, NY, were invited by The Invisible Dog to create a chandelier for the art space. Upon visiting the art space, the artists were immediately drawn to the basement, where they found buckets piled high with old belt buckles and industrial parts. Sifting through the treasure-filled buckets was right up their alley. For years, they have been getting their hands dirty while cleaning, purifying and transforming objects into beautiful structures. The massive chandelier they designed and created combined elements of the found buckles with intricate hand-loomed, glass-beaded textiles.
