Lava Lamp, White Plastic with Blue and Red Lava, Pierre Castignola

About the Item

Amsterdam based designer Pierre Castignola (France - 1995) graduated Cum Laude from the Design Academy in 2018. He aims to have a conceptual background in his work while focusing on a surprising, intriguing and surrealist outcome. His conceptual focus belongs in the perception of the world, with a strong fascination for semiotics and symbols to lead to a radical and critical design. He sets out to redefine the paradigm of creation and consumption. Copytopia is often viewed as the artist’s main body of work. Fascinated by the complexity and symbols surrounding the infamous chair commonly known as monobloc, Castignola employs discarded plastic garden chairs as raw material, which he then cuts and reassembles to constitute a variety of everyday objects. With the use of existing pieces of furniture as part of new ones the artist sets out to question the legitimacy of intellectual property, while simultaneously prompting us to reevaluate our relationship with the objects around us, bringing value back to the ones some might consider disposable. Extension from his main project using plastic garden chair, this new body of object uses plastic garden table. A logical step for the artist that allow him to engage a new visual language and possibilities. Born from a fascination towards the material icon of 1960s counterculture, Lava Lamp is reconstructed from its antithesis, the timeless plastic garden table. In Lava Lamp, the archetype of the peace-and-love era is recreated with a precise assemblage of discarded lawn table parts, signature of the designer, as a personal homage to this increasingly uncommon, timestamped symbol.
