Objet Curiosité
Gaëlle Gabillet and Stéphane Villard, from the French Studio GGSV based in Paris, are presenting their new lights called Objet Curiosité at the Gallery Cat Berro. The exibition will open untill the 12nd of May 2012.
Both pieces of furniture and display windows, these lights of Objet Curiosité act as small curiosity cabinets highlighting the beauty and strangeness of their subjects. When turned off, the bulb and socket disappear beneath an opaque black tinted glass. When lit, the bulb gradually reveals itself behind a soft veil, never dazzling.
The base of Objet Curiosité is made of blackened oak and the bell of blown glass. This series sets different scenes of an exhibition, inciting one to observe and reflect.
The goal of Objet Curiosité is that to motivate into the pubblic some simple question. What is to be looked at: the object or its content? Where are we supposed to be focusing our attention in this day and age?
