MoonDrops is a new lantern style that I was inspired to create sitting in the hottub at Jasper Park Lodge. I’d been invited out to look at setting an installation up for them. That project got bounced from covid related changes, but the artwork more importantly got made. It was an adventure in curved surface modeling, not exactly what the tools I was using were best at, but some extra time and I managed to get a buildable system out of my dreams.
MoonDrops are made from aluminum, one of the more easily recyclable mediums, and post mount on a 2.5″ square tube. I have a set for event installation, and a couple available for sale. These lanterns were built at the end of 2021, and have now shown at a dozen events across Alberta and BC. You can check my store for the retail listing, but contact me directly for a larger scale permanent installation.
