When Will The Wind Rise
When Will The Wind Rise
SHINTARO KONO, 2025
In a closed room, when you cannot find the will to start anything—
perhaps both people and rooms are quietly waiting for the moment when a small wind will finally begin to blow.
In this work, the three dials on the side can be adjusted
to create slow rhythms of flickering and slight trembling in the light,
giving form to the time of “waiting for the wind.”
Nothing dramatic ever happens, yet when you notice it,
the pattern of light and shadow has shifted, just a little,
from where it was before.
Even on days when it feels as if nothing is moving forward,
the “air” is in fact changing little by little, unseen.
This lamp exists to announce those very small changes
from a corner of the room.

How it Works
This work has three dials. By adjusting them, you can create a quality of light that suits your mood and the brightness of the room on that particular day.
Each dial has the following role, together producing a light reminiscent of the soft sunlight on a windy day.
Dial 3 (top): adjusts the speed of change
Dial 2 (middle): adjusts the strength of the shadows
Dial 1 (bottom): power on/off and brightness adjustment
