EVERTHING MADE OF BODY
Works of paper, glue, wood, lamp holder, light bulb, electric cable different sizes
All plastic objects or luminaires have been created by plaster impressions of faces or body parts of persons. The molds thus obtained
are, for example, In their physiognomy or expression, and then transformed into objects of daily life: namely, lamps. In the case of a
part of these luminaries, the molded persons meet in their own offices as sculptures. Unlike in the workplace, the persons in the plastic
representations are turned away from the world of work and business, withdrawn from reality, looking inwards, concentrated, dreaming,
absent-mindedly smiling or even asleep. The light objects work like mirrors, which, when looked at, recall aspects of human existence such
as vulnerability, grief, doubt, ignorance; Dimensions of human life that are hidden in everyday business life.
On the one hand, they are an autonomous work of art and, on the other hand, a normal object of use in their function as a light source.
Even the highclass working persons are not excluded from this claim at the end, to function as an object in this system.
