The Fall Of The Damned Lamp not only sounds scary but also looks something straight from a B-Grade Horror Flick! Don’t get me wrong while I am a patron of art and creativity, this is the very last thing I want hanging from my ceiling.

“this lampshade appears as a hovering mass of ornaments, opulent and bombastic. when viewed more closely it dissolves into single bodies, which are twisted in fear and seem to be frozen in mid-fall. their rhythmic order becomes slightly perplexing and finally renders the bodies an ornament. softly, the fleshy parts of the bodies, legs and stomachs reflect the light. because of the shadows the bodies cast on themselves, only parts of them appear in the foreground. only fragments of the lit inner part of the lamp are distinguishable.”
