AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
"My pieces are conceived to be companions rather than possessions.
I attribute organic, animated characteristics to my objects, hoping they’ll be cared for like pets.
Vincent Decat is a Paris-based artist-designer, a graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven, who explores the boundaries between design and sculpture. He considers an object's durability not only through its materials but, above all, through the emotional connection it evokes. By making his objects nearly alive, they become companions that must be cared for, kept, and cherished.
Some industrial components carry aesthetic qualities we sometimes neglect when we focus only on their function. Our perception changes once they are removed from their context and introduced into a different setting.
The Tripod lamp’s rotating head allows different angles of light projection into a space, thanks to its adjustable faucet connector. The lamp’s body is made from curtain hooks, plumbing elements, and hinges.
Technical information:
Lamp available for countries using 220–230 V.
Please allow an additional 2 weeks for outlets other than type E.
The lamp head is designed to rotate, enabling easy adjustment of the light’s orientation."
Seller's Story
"My pieces are intended to be companions rather than possessions.
I give my objects organic, animated qualities, hoping that people will grow attached to them the way they would to a pet."
Vincent Decat is an artist-designer based in Paris, a graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven, who explores the boundaries between design and sculpture. He considers the durability of an object not only through its materials but primarily through the emotional connection we establish with it. By making his pieces almost alive, they become companions that need to be cared for, cherished, and preserved over time.
