Jérôme Pereira tests the limits of balance with lights made from tree branches

Designer and artist Jérôme Pereira has created a series of carefully weighted lighting sculptures using tree branches he foraged from the forests near his studio in the south of France.

Pereira presented nine of these works in his inaugural solo exhibition, Celestial Attraction, staged by design gallery Philia during Milan design week.

Many of the works are mobiles, with blown-glass lamps delicately suspended from ceiling-hung tree branches.
