jorge manes in 'jeunes pousse' at tools galerie



designer jorge manes reveals the final version of his new ‘useless lamps’ and ‘deer hunter’. the lamps first
debuted to a ‘freaked out’ audience at the madrid design fair. as you may recall the lights are made from
electrical lights frozen in blocks of ice. once the lamp is turned on, the ice begins to slowly melt, eventually
making the lamp useless. the lamps are now on show at tools galerie in paris along with ‘deer hunter’
another of manes’ designs until may 23rd. the two designs are part of the ‘jeunes pousse’ exhibition
featuring a number of young european designers. ‘deer hunter’ appears to be a set of mounted antlers
typically found hanging on hunter’s walls. however, closer inspection reveals that the antlers are actually
made from rifles, suggesting a witty commentary.

Marcos, maybe writing in English would be a good idea...?

Deer Hunter is a quite original and funny idea.
