Contemporary Aluminum Casted Table Lamp by Hakmin Lee

About the Item

The title of this work 'This is not a lamp' is a reinterpretation of “Ceci n'est pas une pipe”, a French phrase for "This is not a pipe" from Magritte’s painting. A pipe presented in the painting is a pipe according to the custom. However, Magritte intended to represent a contradictory image and a text in order to break away from the conventional idea. This is a lamp with a bulb and a switch, which follows the convention, but it also serves as a functional sculpture which aims to be an aesthetic object.

  • "Meia Lua" (Half Moon) Contemporary Table Lamp in Cast Aluminum by Estudio Orth
    By Estúdio Orth
    Located in Sao Paulo, BR
    Produced in São Paulo, Brazil. This table lamp was meticulously handmade by master artisans one piece at a time. It is therefore quite difficult, if not impossible to make identical items. The aluminum casting is produced by formation of a mold from a mixture of sand and the liquid metal. The projects are based on a contemporary appropriation of traditional methods from Brazilian artisans and reinterpreted through the integration of new forms and noble materials. An aesthetic infused with “beauty of imperfection" is obtained by the expressive potential of each material, generating works that recall nature and rationality. Estúdio Orth...
