Contemporary Limited Edition Mixed Media Designer Floor Lamp Dif Lamp

About the Item

The spherical shapes of the new luminaire resemble blood cells, and the tubes leading to them — the vascular system through which they move. Being a medical professional by education, designer Taras Yoom closely works with the theme of human physiology, endowing his objects with subconsciously familiar functions and features. According to the new legend of his Yoomoota art universe, Dif is a luminaire made from earthly cells sent by the hero Thymus to our planet to protect it from infectious agents (Viroids and Bagdov). These cells are stored in Thymus's backpack in the form of living and non-living objects, whose appearance repels enemies. On Orginion (the planet of our body, which personifies our physical interior with all cells, organs and their interaction with each other), similar luminaires are used as talismans. They are activated when infections attack the cities during dark nights. "Every object, be it a sculpture or interior design, is not just an illustration of processes inherent in people but also an allegory for me. Therefore, Dif luminaires not only provide physical protection to the inhabitants during the night but also serve as important conduits and support. It's a light that illuminates the darkness and allows one to defend against irrational fears, which every one of us encounters," explains Taras Yoom.

Contemporary Japanese Chochin Floor Lamp Limited Edition #1 Zen Washi
By Ryosuke Harashima
Located in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo
Name: OBAKE A Contemporary style Japanese Washi Japanese traditional paper shade floor lamp. Washi shade is famous as Isamu Noguchi Akari lightings. Base is made of brass. Limited pattern painted model. Edition of 3+1AP E26,27 light bulb. Available to work with 100-250V. Artist statement In Japan, there is an animist belief that the soul dwells in old tools that have passed a long time and turns into spirits such as "Youkai" or "OBAKE." Its existence lurks in the darkness of everyday life, sometimes causing fear and sometimes entertaining. This lantern is not an old tool, but it is made by the historic "Kojima Shoten", where the 10th generation are craftsmen in Kyoto. It's rare nowadays, and it's a style in which lanterns are made from bamboo bones to assembling papers and painting in one workshop and go. So, I decided to transform the polite crafted Japanese lanterns, which have been run through a traditional history, into a modern and pop style. It's not just OBAKE lurking in the darkness, but an existence who snuggles up to us as a more sophisticated being. These one-eyed OBAKE have a meaningful look that originated in ancient Sanskrit culture. The red-eye "A [a]" is the facial expression that is the first pronunciation to make a sound in Sanskrit, which means "truth" and "spirit of inquiry" at the same time. The blue-eyed "UN [hu?]" expresses the pronunciation to close the sound, and at the same time means "wisdom" and "nirvana." There is also the idea that describing the beginning and end of the universe is represented by considering the "A" and "UN" as a pair. In Asia, it is a common sight to see a pair of guardian statues...
