Lucy McDonnell and Stephen Newby have worked internationally for the last two decades creating small and large scale sculpture through their company Full Blown, with the help of an experienced team of designers, engineers and fabricators. While previously focused on the reflective surfaces of inflated stainless steel with Full Blown, they were increasingly drawn to light as a medium of expression. Studio Vertigo was born out of this growing fascination. Over the last five years their explorations in lighting have attempted to set up contradictions in form, material and scale.

Studio Vertigo have realised numerous exhibitions around the world, including Durham Lumiere (UK, 2019), Amsterdam Light Festival (NL, 2019), Copenhagen Light Festival (Denmark, 2021) and Taiwan Lantern Festival (Taiwan, 2022)
