Artist uses scrap to create amazing lamps with an old-world feel » Its All Random
Artist Cory Barkman takes inspiration from the bygone era to create his amazing work. His work is reminiscent the time gone past and yet, is fairly contemporary. Amazing as these lamps look, they have been constructed entirely out of scrap. Cory searches for water, air, gas and mechanical parts at the scrap yard, identifying material that could potentially be used. We imagine him sifting through mountains of scrap, looking for the one part that will make the magic happen.

Ethnotek is a brand new start-up founded by Jake Orak. The idea behind the company is simple: use high-quality, functional backpacks and messenger bags as a medium to promote ethnic cultures and artistry. Every Ethnotek bag has a removable main front panel which the company calls THREADS. These THREADS are made from fair-trade acquired textiles, sourced in-person and purchased directly from the artisan or village where they originated. That means each purchase of an Ethnotek bag directly supports artisan weaving communities around the world.
