Evoking the expressive post-war modernist spirit and the elongated aesthetic of Alberto Giacometti, this monumental chandelier serves as both functional illumination and a striking kinetic sculpture by the renowned artist and designer Kenneth Cobonpue. The design features a dynamic, interconnected network of textural, attenuated human figures joined in mid-motion, casting dramatic shadows and light through its sculptural lattice. Equipped with two central exposed globe sockets, the piece bridges mid-century Brutalist craft and contemporary avant-garde lighting design, making it a commanding focal centerpiece for any curated interior. The structural frame and individual figures are shaped from hand-bent, powder coated steel rods. Each figure is covered with a salago fiber, a natural durable plant pulp, hand applied over metal wire skeletons to give each figure its distinct organic volume, texture and body. Finished in a coated black with one signature accent figure in a contrasting silver, set amongst the crown of figures.
