BLACK LOCULE LAMP II
The Locule Lamp 2 casts light from beneath like a volcanic stone covering the fires of an underground cave. Its curled matte-black surface conceals and diffuses at once.
Yiorgos Trichas grounds his works in the memories of his childhood home in Syros. The natural curves and contours of the island landscape are reflected here in quiet asymmetries and surreally suspended animation.
The Locule Lamp 2 transforms its surroundings into rock pools and dreamily footlit excursions across place and feeling, while remaining entirely practical.
Yiorgos Trichas’ (b. 1982, Athens, Greece) journey starts in Syros where he was brought up.
Syros offered him a unique sense of freedom and a deep appreciation of art as an essential part of the quotidian. It is the memory of that place that brings him back to his raw state; it reminds him of who he is and who he wants to be.
It is there that he draws his inspiration from; the Cycladic light streaming in through the shutters, the smell of bare earth, the pastel hues, the neoclassical architecture.
As a speech therapist, Trichas gets daily reminders that in life, there is plenty of room to change and reshape, once you bring something back to its unprocessed, unrefined state and resculpt it.
The making of ceramics is no different; the creator imagines, handles, manipulates, sculpts, withdraws and ponders the result.
Lorem ipsum, or lipsum as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum for use in a type specimen book.

The Locule Lamp uses a G9 Halogen bulb, rated at 28 kWh/1000h with 370 lumens. It comes equipped with a Type C Europlug, compatible with the standard Greek voltage of 230V and frequency of 50Hz. For use in other regions, an adaptor may be required. The lamp features a 1-meter black fabric cord.
If you need to replace the bulb, carefully remove it from the grey base inside the sculpture and replace it with a bulb of the same specifications as above.
