The pieces are composed of over 400, circa-1929 California license plates that were excavated from the actual restaurant site in Anaheim, California, which was once home to a Packard auto dealership. The installation speaks to the owner's desire to utilize only natural and recycled materials, to honor the buildings history and to uniquely serve the revitalization efforts in historic downtown Anaheim. "Out of the Darkness, Into the Light" was on display at Afterglow Studio from April 15th - April 30th. On May 9th, 2012, the plates were sent back to where they came from. Returning not as a buried mass of surplus steel, but to live on as the illuminated backdrop of Umami Anaheim. The images above follow the progress of the project from sketches to its eventual completion and installation.

The goal was to build a fixture that was nautical, victorian-esque (Jules Verne), elegant and atmospheric.
