About the Item
Parra knows a fine bit of design when it sees it. The Amsterdam-based brand has long worked with Case Studyo to create striking homeware and collectibles, all leading up to a curvy new creation.
Like the pair's collaborative Give Up tomato sculpture, Parra and Case Studyo's A Pear Lamp is a belegged fruit that also functions as a lamp.
Give Up and A Pear Lamp are both part of Parra's Pop Fruit series, which previously included 2012's Goddess on a Mountain Top, a taller ceramic version of this slouched-over pear lamp.
The anthropomorphized pear is a little saucy, a little silly, and a very serious piece of art. Make no mistake, these limited edition works — A Pear Lamp is offered in an edition of 1,000 — have value on the second-hand market, even if they are just edible arrangements with heeled boots.
Parra claims that his hybrid fruit characters are an examination of "the rule [fruits] can play in our daily life." I don't see a ton of depth in the curvaceous pear lamp, but it is pretty funny and the high-contrast colors — Parra's signature red and blue — are not only a funnily "off" look for the fruit (I guess pears can be red, though), they're a good palette for a funky, modern lamp.
It's also pretty huge, standing — or sitting — tall at a foot and a half and about a half-foot wide. If nothing else, the A Pear Lamp ought to be a good conversation starter.

"These inflated objects are grown more than fabricated. Through the process of inflation, the application of the air to the geometric construction defines form at the moment of inflation."
It is the pragmatic that draws Thomas. Asked about his influences he asserts that his primary influences do not come from the realm of art but rather from everyday living. “I don’t eat, sleep, and breathe art,” he comments. His discovery of metal-working arose in a similar, practical way. Thomas had been sculpting with stone and asked someone to show him how to forge his own chisel. This was the start of his exploration of forging techniques and after a time he gave up working with stone to work with metal. One of the key aspects of blacksmithing that intrigued Thomas was fact that it isn’t instantly gratifying, and it poses questions that aren’t easily solved. He interned with Tom Joyce...
