All our lamps can be wired according to each country. If sold to the USA it will be wired for the USA for instance. Here, where flesh, soul, and marrow vanish, and only bone remains. The most primitive and essential structures from our bodies, recreated in the very substance that brought about the dawn of civilisation and history. Ignis Ossium is a sculptural object, sand-cast in bronze in Mexico City by Artística Galindo's Maestro Reyes Hernández, a foundry with whom Martín Diego Salido-Orcillo (ACOOCOORO Creative Director) has continuously collaborated during his career, both as a sculptor and a designer. Just as bone and marrow have come to symbolize that which is at the core —the soul that stays visible, the evidence of the body that once was—, it is the craftsmen's skill and mastery that truly imbue this object with meaning, permanence, and soul. Founded in 2017 by Martín Diego Salido-Orcillo and Antonio Mendoza Bravo, ACOOCOORO is a furniture, lighting and artifacts studio, a lab, focused on aesthetic and historic research, on objects' narrative and emotional relation with individuals and space. Every object, every piece, more than a product in a collection, is the result of exploration and experimentation through materials, processes and artisanal work. These elements fill every one of them with history, stories and memories: those of the individuals that conceive and create them, and those of the people that live their lives through and with them. Silent Design, finally, is a guiding principle in ACOOCOORO's practice, whenever the collaboration with artisan groups is involved, with a complex yet clear goal: the establishment of non-extractive, cooperative, self-sufficient relations, where craftsmanship, economic benefit, authorship, property, and narrative are reclaimed by and rebalanaced in favor of the artisans themselves, and not the designers.
