Sculpting Light into Living Art

© 2025 Arte LUMIS. All rights reserved.

Photo-shoot day at Arte LUMIS. Today I’m capturing two of my sculptural light pieces using a technique called light painting — a long-exposure method normally done in total darkness. But because my lamps create their own glow, true darkness would completely blow out the image. So I shoot with the garage door light barely on, lamps dimmed to the minimum, and a 20-second shutter. Each exposure becomes a dance around the sculpture, tracing light along the curves to reveal every contour of the wood. No filters, no compositing — just wood, light, and time. This is how I try to honor the material and show the sculpture exactly as it exists in the real world. Natural. Honest. Glowing from within. If you’re a designer, architect, or collector and want to see the final images — or schedule a studio visit — my inbox is always open.

“Standing among the best makers in Texas felt unreal. Every reclaimed log, every late-night sanding session led here. No awards for me this time, but — the light found its place.” #ArteLumis #LightArt #FunctionalArt #ArtLighting #SculptingLight #TexasMade #AustinArtist #WoodSculpture #ModernLighting #ContemporaryDesign #ReclaimedWood #WoodArt #HandcraftedInTexas #DesignWithPurpose #LuxuryLighting #ColumnaLUX #DiscusLUX #TexasFurnitureMakersShow #TFMS2025
✨ Sometimes, light finds its perfect place.

This weekend I was part of the Austin Studio Tour, showing my Arte LUMIS light sculptures inside a beautiful canvas yurt — a space that seemed to breathe with warmth and sunlight.

✨ Sometimes, light finds its perfect place. This weekend I was part of the Austin Studio Tour, showing my Arte LUMIS light sculptures inside a beautiful canvas yurt — a space that seemed to breathe with warmth and sunlight. A heartfelt thank-you to @theluisapineda for inviting me to share her world of photography and for creating such a peaceful, inspiring setting. The way her images and my light-art pieces spoke to each other felt natural — like two stories merging under one glowing roof. Special thanks also to @redlinestudios_atx and @felipegomezart for inviting me to join their fabulous venue for the Austin Studio Tour! I’m grateful for every person who stepped inside, asked questions, lingered, and connected. These quiet exchanges — where art meets curiosity — are what fuel the journey. Until next time, keep following the light. 🌿💡 #ArteLUMIS | #SculptingLightIntoLivingArt #LightArt #WoodSculpture #AustinStudioTour #TexasArtScene #OrganicDesign #ModernCraft #ContemporaryArt #DesignInspo #LightingDesign #InteriorDesignTexas #ArtInstallation #FunctionalArt #TexasMade #ReclaimedWood #SustainableDesign #NatureInspired #AustinArtists
Somewhere between the chainsaw’s roar and the quiet promise of new light… another story begins. 🔥 Picked up a gorgeous pecan log and a massive cookie today at the Austin Parks & Recreation Wood Reclamation Program — each piece once part of Austin’s living canopy, now destined to become sculpted light. Huge thanks to Cody and his team for their continued help and for keeping these incredible materials out of the landfill and in the hands of local makers. 🌳💡 #LightArt #ArtLighting #WoodReclamation #AustinArtScene #TexasMade #SustainableDesign #PecanWood #ReclaimedWood #WoodSculpture #ModernLighting #FunctionalArt #DesignWithPurpose #AustinMakers #HandcraftedInTexas #ArteLumis #ColumnaLUX #DiscusLUX #SculptingLight #asmblymakerspace #AustinMakers
Even light needs to rest. Sometimes, stepping away is how the next spark begins. Recharging the battery, soaking in nature’s rhythm, and letting the mind go quiet before the next wave of creation. ✨ Back soon—with new energy, new wood, new light. #ArteLumis #SculptingLight #LightArt #ModernCraft #AustinDesign #TexasArtist #ArtInNature #NaturalLightDesign #LightingDesign #DesignInspiration #ArtisanStudio #CreativeRecharge #SlowDesign #MindfulArt #WoodAndLight #DesignMood #CraftsmanshipMatters #CreativeProcess
Delivery day energy. Two sculptures. One destination. Where light meets design—again. It’s always something special watching these pieces leave the studio and take their place in spaces built for beauty. Excited to see them come alive inside Cabinet Couture ahead of their grand opening on November 6.

Sanding. Smoothing. Bringing out the glow hidden in the grain. ✨ Tomorrow, these two handcrafted pieces step out of the studio and into a space that’s nothing short of stunning. Stay tuned — this one’s special. #ArteLUMIS #LightArt #SculptingLight #ModernLighting #InteriorDesign #TexasArtist #DesignInProgress #WoodArt #ArtisanMade #LightingDesign #ModernRustic #ContemporaryDesign #AustinDesign #DesignInspo #HandcraftedLighting #DesignCollectors #StudioToShowroom #WhereWoodMeetsLight #ColumnaLUX #DiscusLUX
