Aleksandra Zee is a California-based artist, woodworker and designer who sculptural works are inspired by the high desert. Her practice is guided by light, texture and stillness, exploring the tension between material and space. Through minimalist forms and natural elements, each piece invites reflection, connection and a return to the subtle beauty found in everyday moments. Illume is a sculptural lighting collection exploring wood, form and light, inspired by desert rhythms and contrasts. Each piece allows light to become material, transforming functional objects into sculptural forms that use simplicity and intention.
