he adventures of Randall & Rosen began in spring 2009, by chance Claire Rosen had come across Alex Randall’s bespoke lighting designs and felt a special synergy which was recognized by both artists almost immediately. Claire Rosen is known around the globe for her blend of fine art sensibility, which she combines with her commercial work to create whimsical imagery. Her interest in story telling, extrodinary fascination with the bizarre and unusual has attributed to the use of curiosities within her work. A collaboration with Alex Randall was not only natural but inspiring, Rosen comments ‘I just adore Alex and her chandeliers; what I am most drawn to is that
the materials she uses all have a history or past life and that she is able to highlight that story in a lighting fixture in an interesting and magical way.’ Randall an award winning British Lighting Designer has received international acclaim for her bespoke designs. She is known for her use of unconventional materials in large-scale chandeliers, such as taxidermy, rawhide and salvaged materials. While her work is considered at the forefront of the art/design crossover, Randall is also influenced by story telling- putting to use her MA in creative writing Randall builds a concept for her work from extracts or poems she has written. Sourcing her ideas from forgotten treasure, artifacts
and waste products to fathom something almost mythical and reinterpreted. Randall & Rosen have taken a creative journey together from hot air balloons in evening skys, to pig farms in the misty valleys and to pastures of land in the vast acres of farmland in Devon. Take a moment and look here to cast your eyes across something truely magical. *Prints are available as limited editions.
