Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

A pair of accessory eyes in ‘Midnight’ from the anthropomorphic lantern collection "The Others" by Stephen Burks. The outdoor lighting collection was created in partnership with DEDON. The "eyes" consist of two round lenses composed of an acrylic mosaic in alternating black and white triangles, with the apex of the triangles meeting in the middle to form a hypnotic swirl design. The lenses sit on a coated black aluminum frame designed to be placed over top of any lantern from the collection.
