Details
Dancing Cobra is a sculptural light work carved from a single piece of 300-400 year old reclaimed olive wood branch shaped through a process that responds to the material rather than imposing a predetermined form. The work retains the density, irregularity, and visual tension characteristic of historic olive wood, allowing natural movement in the grain to define the final silhouette.
Light is integrated selectively to articulate depth and curvature, clarifying the relationship between mass and void while preserving the integrity of the material. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece that functions as both illumination and spatial object.
Each Arte LUMIS piece is one-of-a-kind.

Arte LUMIS is a Texas-based light art studio creating one-of-a-kind sculptural lighting from solid, sustainably sourced wood.
Each piece begins as a single log or cross-section—often reclaimed locally—and is transformed through a slow, hands-on process of carving, burning, and refinement. Light is then integrated into the form, revealing hidden structures, depth, and movement within the wood itself.
The result is not a lamp, but a functional sculpture—designed to anchor a space, shift atmosphere, and create presence.
No two pieces are ever alike. Each work carries the natural history of the material, including its origin, often documented down to GPS coordinates.
Arte LUMIS works with designers, architects, and private collectors seeking statement pieces that live at the intersection of art, design, and light.
