My first guess would be water and ice but the are aspects to the shapes that leave a lot of room for doubt. In any case it is an engaging abstract that keeps me looking. Nicely done.
Interesting abstract. Its does its job of keeping the viewer guessing. Can't make an educated guess.

If you know what it is, it is less exciting, of course
It is a modern lamp that I changed from a standing lamp to a hanging (dining table) lamp several years ago, meanwhile another lamp hangs above the table. The idea of the lamp can be seen in the separate photo, long steel wires that can be bent into all kinds of shapes with small cups at the end containing halogen lamps.
When editing the image I used motion blur and added a bit of a brownish colored layer. This involves merging a positive and negative layer. As is well known from analog photography, a negative and positive layer never fit together exactly, which creates a kind of small line that runs along everything in the image, in the digital age that is a bit more difficult to achieve and if you want to imitate that effect nowadays, you make the top layer a few pixels larger than the underlying layer, which automatically creates these kinds of thin - light colored - lines (as seen in abstract#6.
A lot of work, but fun to be busy in this way with an image, thanks everyone for the responses, it's absolutely not that strange if you don't immediately see what it represents.
