studio job & pieke bergmans for dilmos

for this year's milan design week, the dutch-belgian studio job and the dutch pieke bergmans,
in association with italian gallery dilmos will present 'wonderlamp', a collection of 7 light objects.


drawings of the seven light objects

both pieke bergmans and studio job work with archetypal materials.
studio job creates monumental objects made of cast bronze, while bergmans has made
a name for herself developing mouth-blown crystal forms which coagulate into fluid forms.
these are the points of departure for their collaboration 'wonderlamp', in which bergmans'
large glass light bulbs are linked to seven bronze objects from studio job. the seven playful,
but monumental implements stir fantasy and imagination. where bergmans' objects seek correlation
with reality, studio job creates a fantasy world full of surrealistic elements. these differences offer
enough points of contact for an interesting exchange of ideas.

studio job was established and is still based in antwerp, belgium.
job smeets is of belgian descent, while nynke tynagel is dutch.
they also have an office in the netherlands.

Seems like an homage to Michael Craig-Martin.
Joseph   03.12.10
studio job actually evolved from a facebook group called 'lets see what sells well at designart auctions' and they went on from there.
designboom, this isnt necessarily a criticism of that statement of intent, but I realise that opinions (especially those requiring a modicum of humour) need censoring, so please go ahead :-)
