About this product
This hand woven wall light is part of a collection of lights developed by Koskela in collaboration with the Moa Arts. The collaboration, a first of its kind, uses traditional weaving techniques to create a truly beautiful and contemporary design product.
As each individual artist has complete freedom to interpret the form, each light is a one off and therefore entirely unique. The artists of Moa Arts are inspired by maalu (the sea that belongs to the land) and its creatures.
For Ngalya, the Moa artists and Koskela designers have developed two forms based on the majestic Eagle Ray, and smaller blue spotted stingray. Artist Josie Nawia states: “the many colours represents all the children, people from all walks of life and beliefs and cultures. No matter our culture, our background or our nationality, we all share a dream through our spiritual walk of life, that reflects through our heart and is woven through our art. With one heart, and many colours, we are the unique people. Although we are many, we are one.”

Installation: There are two installation options for the Moa wall light.
Hardwired by an electrician on site. This is the most seamless approach. The frame can be fixed to the wall. The cable and driver will need to be hardwired to a switch-on sight.
Pre-wired. The light will come wired up with a switch and a 3-pin plug. The light can be fixed to the wall and plugged into a standard power point. Please contact us at info@koskela.com.au if you require pre-wiring
