Draft statement. The House revises this text before launch.

Lamp No. 1 is the first work in the Lamp Series: a seated figure cast in bronze, its head a lamp socket. The figure sits on the edge of whatever holds it, legs hanging free.

Padar casts in bronze at a foundry in New Mexico. The plates run from the finished bronze back through the foundry to the wax.
