What inspired you to start making these prisms?
” I’ve always loved acrylic. It’s weight, optical clarity, precision and refractive qualities. I’ve also always made things. I made memory games and interactive block calendars a number of years ago that I showed in London. working in acrylic is something I’ve always wanted to do. When the opportunity came, I moved on it. it’s all a new thing for me really but I’m finding my way…more to come!”
These prisms do come with a hefty price tag of $950.00, but you can also purchase a print which I feel is equally effective for only $45.00 at Maryam Nassir Zadeh.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
Phillip Low’s Color blocked acrylic/lucite prisms are a gorgeous touch to any space with a natural source of light. The way that light hits and bounces off the prism creates an unpredictable and almost galactic effect. When we asked Low “Is it art or design?” he responded with…
“You decide. That line is blurry in some cases and I tend towards things that represent both at the same time. I also love things that engage the viewer…interactive stuff you can play with and make “new” when you feel like it. The table pieces I make are meant to be flipped around to create different effects. Maybe it’s craft?”

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
i agree4
