Biography

Designer/artist Jacob Alkema produces light forms and develops new materials. New light applications, new techniques and new materials are a trademark for his work. These light forms are always handmade, in a small serie or single pieces. Although technical development and material application are important, these definitely do not lead the design process. The (light) effects, the experience and the radiation of atmosphere are paramount.
