GIOBAGNARA | Light: The Art of Illumination, Shaped by Material: Leather, Rattan, Bronze, Travertine
October. By six o'clock, it is already dark, and the home begins to change. Light no longer falls from above: it settles on the table, rests against the wall, lingers at eye level beside the armchair where someone has just opened a book. Each lamp defines a space, and together, these pools of light shape the room. When switched off, the lamp does not disappear: it retains its volume, proportion, and presence, like a sculpture. Material, then, becomes essential, because the object is seen even when it is not illuminated. Giobagnara brings its own material vocabulary to lighting: finely worked leather, handwoven rattan, bronze, and travertine. The result is a selection of table, floor, wall, and pendant lamps, including designs developed in collaboration with Francesco Balzano, Stéphane Parmentier, and Belgian lighting specialist Tekna.
